DJs lined up for Ambassador Greatest Hits Radio cruise

DJs are to appear on a one-off themed Ambassador Cruise Line sailing in conjunction with Greatest Hits Radio.

Passengers will be able to play PopMaster with Ken Bruce and dance to DJ sets by Martin Kemp, Jenny Powell and Kate Thornton and participate in Q&A sessions with the radio station’s hosts.

The five-day ‘Greatest Hits Radio Escape’ departs from London Tilbury on October 27, with the ship Ambience sailing to Hamburg and Amsterdam.

Prices start at £499 per person, plus half price beverages on all drinks packages for bookings made before February 27.

People can also win places on the cruise their way on board by listening to the station and entering draws online. 

The line’s chief marketing officer Gordon Nardini said: “Greatest Hits Radio is a fun, engaging and wholly enjoyable platform and we are delighted to be able to work with them, courtesy of this partnership. 

“Ambassador shares the same values and a similar audience demographic to Greatest Hits Radio, and this groundbreaking venture offers us a wonderful opportunity to introduce both seasoned and new-to-cruise customers to our premium value, no-fly cruise brand. 

“We’re thrilled to be working together on something that’s never been done before, with the fantastic broadcast talent joining guests onboard the Greatest Hits Radio Escape cruise set to further enhance the warmest welcome at sea Ambassador has grown famous for.”

Simon Kilby, managing director of the station’s parent Bauer Media Advertising, said: “This Greatest Hits Radio Escape cruise is one of the biggest and most ambitious partnerships we’ve done in recent years.

“The station is on a meteoric rise, and as we see more listeners coming to the station and wanting to engage with the brand, this collaboration with Ambassador Cruise Line felt like a natural progression and the perfect partnership. 

“This combines the strong relationships our presenters have with their loyal listeners and our burgeoning commercial events portfolio and marries that with a brand and activity that we know our listeners also love.”
