P&O Ferries is launching a host of music-themed mini cruises

P&O Ferries has added a quirky twist to some of its North Sea sailings in 2019 that's sure to be a hit with music fans.

That's because the ferry line will be offering a host of themed mini cruises, each paying tribute to different music genres and acts.

Highlights include an 80s themed party cruise, a sailing with live DJs, a journey through Hollywood's greatest hits, and even a tribute to Elvis Presley.

The sailings will take place on selected dates in November and December, and with prices starting from £59pp it can make for a budget-friendly and fun way to travel.

You can already book the music themed mini cruises on the P&O Ferries website but it's worth getting in early as places are subject to availability.

So what exactly is on offer? We take a look at the four themed sailings you won't want to miss...
