CaptainsCruise 2025
27.08. - 29.08.2025 Helsinki
Welcome to the CaptainsCruise 2025
Our brainstorming and networking cruise on Tallink Silja Line’s cruise ship Silja Symphony brings together Captains of the tourism Industry from across the Nordic and Baltic region together with leading European buyers, to inform, brainstorm, discuss and build lasting relationships.
The objective of the cruise is to encourage high-level discussion on key issues in an intimate yet informal networking environment, to formulate Nordic tourism strategies and to build long lasting tourism relationships with Nordic suppliers and buyers in the region.
The full day business insights and sessions (details tba) will take place throughout the day on our return journey from STO-HEL on the 28th August. This will give us much more time for networking, for our market updates, for some additional inspiring (and controversial) discussions and enable more relationship and partnership building with suppliers, buyers and partners alike!
