The high seas will be filled with country music in 2017 as Tim McGraw and Little Big Town take part in Carnival Cruise Line’s spring Carnival LIVE concert series.

The country music superstars will step aboard some of Carnival’s ships when passengers dock in Nassau, The Bahamas, early next year. McGraw will bring hits like “Something Like That” and “Where The Green Grass Grows” to fans aboard the Carnival Breeze March 2 and Carnival Valor March 3. Grammy-winning quartet Little Big Town will also perform for passengers on the Carnival Dream and Carnival Valor when they dock in Nassau on May 11 and May 12, respectively.

McGraw and LBT aren’t the only country stars to take part in the concert series. Past artist participants include Martina McBride, Lady Antebellum, Trace Adkins, and this October, Sam Hunt will participate with several shows.

Carrie Underwood is also slated to perform as part of Carnival LIVE in the later part of 2017. Underwood is currently working with CCL and Operation Homefront as they select military families to take part in a private meet-and-greet with Underwood at 10 stops on her tour. The program will conclude with a private concert for service men and women and their families aboard Carnival’s newest ship, the Carnival Vista, at the Port of New York on November 4, 2016.

Also taking part in the 2017 Carnival LIVE lineup will be comedians Jay Leno and Jeff Foxworthy.

Carnival LIVE brings one-of-a-kind entertainment to the seas. Performances are held in the ship’s main theaters, ranging in capacity from 900 to 1,300 guests. Tickets for the shows range in price from $30 to $80 for general admission, with VIP tickets ranging from $100 to $300.
