New Liner To Be Named In World-First Beachside Event

P&O Cruises will tomorrow officially name its newest ship Arvia in a spectacular beachside ceremony in Barbados.

The event, which will include some of Britain’s most contemporary, popular performers and presenters, will be broadcast live online to a global audience.

P&O Cruises president Paul Ludlow said: “We always aim to do things differently, to create stand out and memorable moments for our current and future guests.

“Arvia will spend her first season sailing in the Caribbean so it is fitting that we mark her naming in one of our favourite ports of call with a week of celebratory performances and experiences on board.

“This naming event, which has never been done before, will showcase our extraordinary new ship Arvia, the beauty of Barbados and will include some very special surprises.

“The ship will be positioned off one of the island’s most stunning beaches so the audience at home will be able to see both the striking new interior design of the ship as well as the performances and events taking place on the shore.”
