Viking Octantis Cruise Ship Watch Party

Viking Octantis Cruise Ship Watch Party | DECC Rooftop Deck | Monday, August 24

Sip your favorite drink, snack on boat bites, and groove to the smoothest yacht rock, all the while watching a cruise ship make their farewell port of call announcements.

Then, you can lift a glass as she majestically slips under the iconic Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge.

All while soaking in one of Duluth’s most spectacular waterfront views on the DECC’s Rooftop Deck.

It doesn’t get more Duluth-y than this.

Join us for these FREE events when cruise ships are in town. Enter through Door D between Symphony Hall and DECC Arena.

Watch Party events will be canceled for poor weather.

Harbor Drive is closed to road traffic during this time.

Caution: Harbor Drive includes restricted zones. Kindly remain vigilant of your surroundings and refrain from entering these areas

Duluth welcomed a handful of cruise ships in the mid-1990s and early 2000s. However, 2022 saw a new era of passenger cruising come to the Twin Ports. In the summer of 2024, eleven ships will enter our Duluth-Superior harbor under the Lift Bridge. Duluth is now considered an attractive passenger destination and the cruise industry forecasts more leisure cruises in our area in the years to come. Many cruise guests have never been to Minnesota and are delighted by our city, its hospitality, and all it offers visitors.
