The story

A Day To Remember's Big Ole Boat Show is a four-day music festival hosted on the Norwegian Jewel, taking place in Miami, United States. This floating party features performances from bands such as Knocked Loose, The Devil Wears Prada, and Dying Wish, among others. The event includes unique experiences like Q&As, cannonball battles, and onboard entertainment, all leading to a port day in Nassau, Bahamas.

A Day To Remember's Big Ole Boat Show is a 5-day metalcore, rock festival at Norwegian Jewel in Miami, United States. The April 2027 edition runs 28 Apr – 2 May 2027.

Announced so far: The Devil Wears Prada, A Day To Remember, Dying Wish, Knocked Loose and Spite. Expect stages split between metalcore and rock. The line-up is spread across the 5 festival days, so a full-weekend ticket is the only way to catch every name.

Everything happens at Norwegian Jewel, in Miami. Miami is the base for the trip: it is where the affordable beds, the late trains and the after-parties are, and where prices climb fastest as the dates approach.

A Day To Remember's Big Ole Boat Show keeps the same calendar slot each year: April 2027 for this edition, opening on a Wednesday and closing on a Sunday. It falls in spring, ahead of the summer festival rush, which usually keeps travel cheaper than the July and August dates. That slot matters for the budget — flights and rooms in Miami are priced for the festival weekend, not the week around it, so shifting your arrival by a day often saves more than any ticket tier does.

• Two unique pool deck sets
• Nonstop performances from various artists
• Ports stop in Nassau, Bahamas
• Multiple stages on the ship
• Onboard activities including tattoo sessions

Planning the trip, step by step

1. 1Book the ticket first: tiers at A Day To Remember's Big Ole Boat Show are sold in waves and the cheapest wave is gone long before the line-up is complete.
2. 2Then price the travel from Paris — Cinderella compares train, bus, car and flight for the same dates, and the cheapest option is not always the obvious one.
3. 3Reserve 6 nights rather than 5: the last night of a festival almost always ends after the last train home.
4. 4Follow A Day To Remember's Big Ole Boat Show on Cinderella to be emailed when a ticket price drops or a new tier opens.

Travel tips from Paris

• The site itself is Norwegian Jewel, in Miami.
• Book a bed in Miami early — rooms around a festival sell out before the last ticket tier does.
