Regent Seven Seas Cruises®, The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet™, is delighted to announce a multi-year renewal of its’ partnership with The Australian Ballet, highlighting both brands’ shared vision to providing discerning guests and patrons with inspiring and memorable experiences.
Presenting upwards of 200 performances annually, The Australian Ballet has been a shining beacon in the nation’s cultural landscape for over 60 years through a commitment to spirited style, artistic vibrancy and a love of dance.
The agreement will see Regent Seven Seas Cruises become the Production Partner of one mainstage production per year, running consecutively across Sydney and Melbourne. In 2024 this is Christopher Wheeldon’s extravagant Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Masterfully translated from Lewis Carroll’s beloved book, Wheeldon brings the humour and eccentricities of the original story to the ballet stage in a fantastical tale suitable for the whole family.
Lisa Pile, Vice President Sales & General Manager Asia Pacific, Regent Seven Seas Cruises, says the exclusive partnership underlines the cruise line’s dedication to supporting the Australian arts industry
“We are delighted to be renewing our long-standing partnership with The Australian Ballet. Our shared values and special relationship have been an excellent way in which to introduce each other’s valued patrons and guests to our respective organisations.”
Arts and culture have for many years been synonymous with the Regent Seven Seas Cruises experience. Guests on board The World’s Most Luxurious Fleet™ enjoy fascinating insights on art, history and culture from expert lecturers as part of the onboard enrichment offering, as well as a scintillating entertainment program of orchestra, world dance, cabaret and theatre productions in the glittering Constellation Theater.
The partnership between Regent Seven Seas Cruises and The Australian Ballet was renewed in March 2024 and will be in place for three years. It provides a range of touchpoints allowing Regent to engage and reward its valued trade partners and guests with ‘money-can’t-buy’ experiences such as opening night VIP invitations, backstage access and dress rehearsals. Regent will also have exclusive ticket rates for guests and travel partners throughout the season, giving them the chance to immerse themselves in the magic of The Australian Ballet productions.
During immersive voyages to more than 550 destinations around the world, travellers can choose from thousands of Included Unlimited Shore Excursions, including endless opportunities to delve into the art and cultural scenes of cities they visit. From being mesmerised by the Guggenheim collection in Venice followed by an evening performance of Baroque arias in the 16th century Scuola Grande di San Teodoro, every Regent itinerary is as varied as the guests taking it.
