Princess Cruises is now the official cruise line partner of the Academy of Country Music.

The cruise line helped celebrate the 59th ACM Awards Show hosted by Reba McEntire last month on the red carpet, with interviews of artists and nominees on the Princess Stage. 

Moving forward, Princess will also be the presenting sponsor of the new ACM Live from the Red Barrel Lounge series at the academy’s headquarters in Nashville this summer. This series will feature performances from new and emerging country artists. The cruise line will also welcome some of the artists onboard future Princess trips.

Princess will also help support the ACM Honors in August.

“Princess is incredibly proud to partner with the ACM and to showcase the next big country stars,” says John Padgett, president of Princess Cruises. “Country music has a special place in the hearts of many of our guests, and this partnership allows us to bring unparalleled experiences onboard to combine that love for cruising and country music in a unique and memorable way."
