If you’ve been wondering how to plan your next vacation, Flip Phone Events has you covered. AGolden Girlsat Sea themed cruise experience will be setting sail next year on Jul 26, 2025, from Miami, Florida. Of course, that’s the city where the titular ladies lived on the comedy series, making it a perfect point of departure. The cruise will include stopovers in Key West, Florida, and Cozumel, Mexico. While these exotic locations will be nice to visit, the bulk of the fun from the trip will certainly come from the ship itself, which will sound like absolute paradise for any major fan of the classic ’80s sitcom.
Perhaps most importantly of all, there will be plenty of cheese cake, as a cheese cake party will be one of the special events to be found on board. Other fun activities on the ship include Dorothy’s Bingo,Golden GirlsTrivia, One Night in St. Olaf Dance Party, Rusty Anchor karaoke party, and a Shady Pines craft corner. Of course, costumes are encouraged, because there will be a costume contest as well to judge those with the bestDorothy, Blanche, Sophia, and Roseoutfits. Does eating cheese cake while being surrounded by a gaggle ofGolden Girlsfans in costumes not sound like an unforgettable experience?
The Golden Girlsoriginally ran from 1985 to 1992. The show focused on four previously-married woman moving together in a single household, each with their own distinct personalities. It starredBea Arthuras Dorothy Zbornak, Rue McClanahan as Blanche Devereaux, Estelle Getty as Sophia Petrillo, and Betty White as Rose Nylund. A short-lived spin-off calledThe Golden Palacewould air after the show ended, taking place in a Miami hotel with Blance, Sophia, and Rose. Sadly, most of the original cast members are no longer with us, as White is the only surviving lead actress from the series. It’s not clear if the 97-year-old will be making a special appearance on the cruise, but it’s certainly possible.
Despite ending almost thirty years ago,The Golden Girlsseems to be just as popular as ever. It’s easy to find modern clothing featuring the ladies from the show at various retailers, along with other forms of merchandise. It was also previously announced byNECAthat all four women would be getting clothed action figures based on their likenesses as well. While most sitcoms seem to have been forgotten over time,The Golden Girlsis trendy with today’s audiences, and it seems likely the cruise will be filled with fans of the show from all age groups.
TheGolden Girls at Seacruise is not the first of its type, withThe Walking DeadandStar Trek receiving theme cruisesof their own in the past. The experience is set on the cruise ship Celebrity Infinity, which carries a 2,170 person total occupancy. Prices range from about $1,000 to $1,2000 based on double occupancy, but the best part is each ticket comes with unlimited drinks. It’s not clear how many times you’ll be hearing the trademark theme song once you’re on board the ship, but chances are, it will be a lot. you may find out more info at Flip Phone Events.
