Seabourn and “The Atlantic” Partner on Enrichment at Sea Program

Seabourn is bringing “The Atlantic” onboard its ships for a three-year partnership to host a series of curated events on select itineraries. The partnership will culminate in a full itinerary takeover in 2028, during Seabourn’s 40th anniversary year, on a 12-day cruise from Montreal to Boston.

The first-of-its-kind partnership for both entities will bring “The Atlantic” programming to select Seabourn cruises reflecting a range of topics, including culture and books, business and science, health and tech – with conversations led by “The Atlantic” writers.

The 12-day sailing, which departs on Oct. 4, 2028, will feature exclusive editorial programming inspired by The Atlantic Festival, moderated discussions, and thematic experiences.

Additional voyages featuring programming from “The Atlantic” will be announced at a later date and will happen in 2026 and 2027.

The partnership also includes a subscription integration: Guests on a cruise featuring an Atlantic event will have free digital access while on board and receive a complimentary three-month subscription after their sail. “The Atlantic” is also curating the libraries on each ship fleetwide, with recent issues of the magazine and books by its current and historical writers.  

The Atlantic programming is part of Seabourn Conversations, Seabourn’s enrichment program.

“Our guests are driven by a desire to explore — drawn not only to new destinations, but to the discovery of ideas, culture, cuisine, design and beyond that shape the world around them,” said Kacy Cole, Seabourn’s chief marketing officer. “With The Atlantic, we’re extending that exploration beyond place, bringing meaningful conversation and perspectives on board in a way that feels immersive, relevant, and unmistakably Seabourn.”
