Holiday Parties
Certain times of the year are simply magical on the waters of Seattle.
A holiday party during the Argosy Cruises Christmas Ship™ Festival will leave your guests delighted and mesmerized by the shimmering views of a holiday-lit winter sky.
What is the Christmas Ship™ Festival?
It is a ship-to-shore holiday celebration that has been a Northwest tradition since 1949. The Spirit of Seattle, the Official Christmas Ship™, is decorated with hundreds of lights and sails to different Puget Sound waterfront communities – around 65 in all. Choirs on board the Christmas Ship™ perform to guests aboard as well as to our Follow Boats and to communities gathered on shore.

Join the Christmas Ship™ Festival for an evening and follow the Lead Boat as she travels to various waterfront communities. Argosy vessels are fully decorated and can accommodate up to 350 guests. From on board your vessel, you’ll be treated to spectacular views of the official Christmas Ship™ as well as choir performances – as broadcast from the Lead Boat – at each community stop.
