Hosting the event will be radio personality Eddie Trunk and the stars of AXS TV’s “The Power Hour.”
A pre-sale for tickets begins July 25 and runs through July 27. Those interested in getting tickets may sign up for the pre-sale now via the cruise’s official website now. A public on-sale will begin July 28. Also, the first 500 cabins booked will get a photo opportunity with Creed.
Creed features singer Scott Stapp, guitarist Mark Tremonti, bass player Brian Marshall and drummer Scott Phillips. In the years follow’s Creed’s last reunion show, Tremonti, Marshall, and Phillips have released new music and toured as Alter Bridge with vocalist Myles Kennedy.
