AIDA Cruises has turned 29 and the countdown to the big 3-0 bash in 2026 is officially on! Since launching its very first ship in Rostock on June 7, 1996, AIDA has redefined cruising with a fresh, fun, and free-spirited vibe. Now a leader in the German cruise market, it’s planning a birthday blowout like no other.
Here’s what’s coming up:
- Best of AIDA cruise on AIDAdiva (April 2026) with Otto Waalkes, Beatrice Egli, Stefanie Heinzmann, Mickie Krause & more—plus music, comedy, drag, and full-throttle fun!
- June 7, 2026: Sister ship reunion in Hamburg with AIDAsol, AIDAperla & AIDAprima forming a stunning parade on the Elbe.
- Festival Cruise on AIDAprima (June 8–12, 2026) promises epic parties at sea with surprise live acts across multiple stages!
The message is clear: Next year’s turning 30 will be an AIDA fan’s dream come true!
