Seatrade Cruise Global Returns for Its 41st Year
The cruise industry’s longest-running and most influential conference, Seatrade Cruise Global, returns April 13–16, 2026, at the Miami Beach Convention Center. The event will bring together cruise lines, ports, destinations, shipyards, and suppliers to address critical challenges and emerging opportunities across the global cruise sector.
The 2026 programme will explore key industry priorities, including decarbonisation pathways, artificial intelligence, next-generation ship design, and digital transformation. Additional sessions will focus on luxury and expedition cruising growth, river and niche cruise markets, geopolitical impacts on operations, and evolving guest expectations.
Signature features include The Presidents Panel, leadership-focused discussions on sustainability and ESG strategy, workforce development forums, and in-depth analysis of investment outlooks, port and destination infrastructure, onboard entertainment, and guest experience innovation.

Clean Ocean Initiative Continues
Seatrade Cruise Global will once again partner with 4ocean as part of its Clean Ocean initiative. For every dollar collected during registration, 4ocean will remove one pound of ocean plastic from waterways worldwide. To date, the initiative has helped remove over 45 million pounds of plastic and debris from oceans, rivers, and coastlines through ongoing cleanup operations.
F&B@Sea Triples in Size
F&B@Sea 2026, running April 15–16 at Miami’s Mana Wynwood Convention Center, continues its rapid expansion following its launch in 2023. The event now features more than 180 exhibitors, spanning wellness and functional foods, alcoholic beverages, onboard equipment, and foodservice technology.
New experiential elements include the Lido Deck beach club speakeasy and the Matchmaking Café, designed to facilitate both structured and informal buyer-supplier meetings. The Taste and Learn Lounge has been redesigned to emphasise education-led sessions presented by professional chefs and mixologists rather than product demonstrations.
An expanded awards ceremony, recognising excellence across 9 to 11 categories, reflects the event’s growing industry participation and influence.
