Are you ready for Round 3 of the original? Imagine starting the year in style: In January 2013, 40 heavy metal bands and 2,000 fans from all over the world will go once again to the Caribbean to take over the luxury cruise ship Majesty Of The Seas for a five-day-and-four-night trip of a lifetime.
Make no mistake, this is not one of the cruises where you share the ship with regular cruise guests… and don’t get intimidated by copycats! This is 70000 Tons Of Metal, the world’s biggest floating heavy metal festival, featuring the biggest open-air stage to sail the open seas. Enjoy unrestricted festival access to all live shows on board, open-mic nights, clinics, workshops, the infamous metal karaoke, bars that never close, two full days at sea, a fun-and-sun-filled day on a beautiful Caribbean island and an opportunity to mingle side-by-side with the artists in this incredibly fan-friendly scenario that has no comparison. It’s like everyone has a backstage pass!
Headbangers from around the world, please welcome the first 10 out of 40 bands on board:
ANACRUSIS
DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER
DORO
HELSTAR
IMMOLATION
IN FLAMES
LACUNA COIL
NILE
SABATON
SUBWAY TO SALLY
70000 Tons Of Metal will sail Monday, January 28, 2013 aboard the Royal Caribbean Majesty Of The Seas from Miami, Florida and will not return you to the real world for four days until Friday, February 1, 2013.
This leaves only one question: What will be the destination? Well, you know they like to keep you guessing, so they’re not telling until… SOON!
Ticket prices start at $666 (U.S.) plus $299 taxes and fees per person and include all on-board entertainment, non-alcoholic and non-carbonated beverages, all meals at the dining rooms, most on-board restaurants and even 24-room service!
