Oceania Cruises will welcome figures from the worlds of technology, film, culture and the arts for Curated Conversations onboard.
Debuting on select sailings in 2027, the enrichment program will welcome speakers including Steve Wozniak to the Oceania Allura and Karen Allen to the Oceania Vista, according to a statement.
Rolling out across the fleet, it will feature an expanding lineup of figures chosen not only for their accomplishments, but also for their ability to inspire dialogue.
“Curated Conversations reflects the spirit of exploration that defines an Oceania Cruises voyage. Our guests are naturally curious travelers who value discovery as much as the destinations themselves,” said Jason Montague, chief luxury officer of Oceania Cruises.
“This program creates rare opportunities to engage with extraordinary individuals whose experiences and perspectives inspire new ways of thinking. Whether exploring the world ashore or exchanging ideas onboard, our guests are continually seeking meaningful moments of connection, and Curated Conversations is designed to deliver exactly that.”
The program will center on conversation rather than lectures and select sessions will be hosted by the Cruise Director in an interview format, followed by an open Q&A.
