Wait, what is the JoCo Cruise?
We are the entertainment destination for people to explore and embrace their passions, hobbies, selves, and friendships—new and old.
JoCo Cruise is a week-long event where every day at sea is filled with musical performances, expert panels, and comedy showcases that have the boat rocking and roaring with laughter. Tabletop and electronic gaming, crafting activities, and self-produced guest-run programming offer a diverse offering that promises something for everyone.
Families, friends, solo adventurer—literally everyone is welcome.
To a place where you’ll cultivate
connections that transcend the sea
Foster friendships with fascinating, creative, and really awesome people during the best week of your year.
We Celebrate Differences
With more hours of scheduled programming than there are hours in the week, JoCo cruise offers something for every enthusiasm, interest and identity. Readers, gamers, crafters, music lovers, and cosplayers; families, groups of friends, and solo travelers; straight, lesbian, gay, bi, trans, queer, and more; the only rule is everyone is welcome.

THIS IS NOT AN APRIL`S FOOL JOKE: You may have noticed that JoCo Cruise 2026 is sold out, but we have been hard at work on a possible solution. If enough people are interested, we may be able to have a new, second JoCo Cruise 2026 sailing on March 28 - April 4, 2026 from San Diego. Visit our site for more info and to make your deposit if interested.
Share this news with folks who were bummed that the cruise sold out! This opportunity will sail away on Monday of next week.
It is Transgender Day of Visibility and we couldn`t be more proud of the cruisers who came together to create and display this banner as we left port. We love this community and we believe that JoCo Cruise is better because of our transgender and non-binary family, friends, colleagues, guests and performers 💙🌈💙
