Regent Seven Seas Cruises has announced enhancements to its onboard programming with a refreshed lineup of guest speakers and live entertainment. Designed to appeal to culturally curious travelers, the new program introduces expert-led lectures and world-class performances, all included as part of the line’s all-inclusive cruise fare.

World-Class Entertainment for Guests

The enrichment program will feature notable thought leaders such as former diplomats, international correspondents, historians and scientists, offering in-depth discussions on global affairs, culture and history. In the evenings, guests can enjoy live entertainment ranging from award-winning comedians to acclaimed performers from Broadway, London’s West End and popular TV shows like The Voice and American Idol.

“As a leader in ultra-luxury, all-inclusive cruising, engaging enrichment and exciting entertainment is essential to an unrivaled guest experience,” said Jason Montague, Chief Luxury Officer at Regent Seven Seas Cruises, in a press statement. “Our amazing teams are consistently looking to enhance our discerning guests’ vacation, and with a fresh and innovative new program, we are looking forward to elevating the standard of ultra-luxury cruising, all included in the price of the sailing.”

The new program is led by Daniel Bartrope, Director of Entertainment Operations and Enrichment at Regent Seven Seas Cruises, and follows the cruise line’s recent rollout of brand-new production shows across the fleet.

“The Regent enrichment and entertainment experience is as spellbinding as it is comprehensive—we put as much care and attention into our onboard programming as we do our incredible itineraries and extensive shore excursion menu,” said Bartrope, Director of Entertainment Operations and Enrichment, Regent Seven Seas Cruises, in a media announcement. “From former ambassadors and rocket scientists to cultural historians and talented stars who have tread the boards of the West End and Broadway, this lineup perfectly complements the already unrivaled standard of entertainment onboard The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet.”
