The SuperCruise
The Capital Jazz Fest at Sea!
What started as a celebration of the 15th anniversary of the Capital Jazz Fest in 2007 has turned into an annual entertainment extravaganza at sea! This September, Capital Jazz will once again take over the entire 2400-passenger Royal Caribbean Grandeur of the Seas cruise ship for seven days and nights of concerts, parties, jam sessions, comedy, and much more. With non-stop entertainment and activities throughout the day and night, there's more than you can possibly do on a single cruise! Whether you're traveling solo, with a friend, or a significant other, the SuperCruise has fun activities for everyone.
