Trevor Nelson will take centre stage in Arvia’s Skydome and will introduce the traditional bottle smash with the ship’s yet-to-be-revealed godmother while Sara Cox will host guests on the beach.
They will both be sailing on Arvia’s March 11 departure and will host late night DJ sets on board.
P&O Cruises president Paul Ludlow said: “For our guests watching Arvia’s naming ceremony from home and from Barbados this is a real treat.
“Olly, Sara and Trevor really do make a star-studded line up which showcases the contemporary entertainment for which P&O Cruises is known.”
He added: “It is not often that in the depths of UK winter you can be transported to a spectacular white sand, palm-fringed beach in the Caribbean and watch a live performance from one of Britain’s best-loved stars. It really will be a moment to remember.”
The live broadcast takes place at 7pm UK time on March 16 on YouTube.
