Upstairs playing live music , whilst downstairs the cool DJ talents of DJ Dave from Groove Traders.
Party and mingle while watching the sunset over Melbourne from the Yarra River. There will be tunes pumping with a mix of all genres, drinks flowing, delicious canapes, a complimentary drink on arrival, and uninterrupted views of our gorgeous city.
We will be heading downstream on the Yarra River, under the Bolte and Westgate bridges to Williamstown. On the return we will turn it up a notch, taking in the city view via Port Melbourne and St Kilda, when the party is well and truly underway.
Coming solo is the norm! Our friendly male and female hosts will greet you at the door, help you check-in, and give you a run-through of what will happen throughout the night. No need to worry about attending without a wing person, you will meet one at the event!
On arrival you will be greeted by our hosts, a welcoming complementary drink and given one of our "Find a Spark" Valentine's Cards. What a great way to start your cruise.
Complementary drink on arrival. Delicious cocktails, spirits, and plenty of party-starting shots are available from Melbourne's most exciting floating bar!
