Italian feasts in the à la carte
On the Helsinki-Stockholm route, you can enjoy a specially adapted three-course menu in Grill House and Happy Lobster or the seasonal menu in our very own Tavolàta! On the Tallinn cruise, there's an Italian seasonal menu in the Grill House too. The food is so good it could have been created by a real Italian nun on Capri.
Italian flavours in the Grande Buffet
Come and taste Italy in the Grande Buffet! The Italian-themed table is packed with classic dishes and flavours from all over Italy. We've got everything from Tuscan soup to tiramisu and Italian cheeses.
Why not get the whole family or group of friends together for a real feast?

*Please note that the selection may vary between ships.
Not just Aperol Spritz!
How about a glass of Prosecco, a refreshing San Pellegrino and specialty drinks like a Tiramisu Martini, Negroni Sbagliato or Limoncello Spritz (mocktail)? You can enjoy the drinks in the Promenade Bar and Seaview Lounge (Silja Serenade & Silja Symphony) and in the Manhattan Piano Bar (Baltic Queen).

Four shows every night
All good things are four! Treat yourself to beautiful opera singing, take a trip down memory lane and dance away to fantastic swing music. On our cruises on the Helsinki-Stockholm route, you can enjoy four shows per cruise – all with an Italian theme! How about Night at the Opera – a festive opera performance dedicated to Italian bel canto – or Italodisco – a musical time machine that takes you back to the Italian 60s?
Tenor singing and acrobatics
You are either on the Baltic Sea or in the heart of an Italian square! The Promenade on the Silja Symphony and Silja Serenade is full of entertainment, with exciting acrobatics and live music. You can enjoy the sounds of Italian tenor singers or relax to atmospheric acoustic guitar while you sip your Aperol Spritz. That's amore!
Are you ready to dance? The Italian house band makes it impossible to sit still in our show bar, Starlight!
Italian music throughout the ship
There's atmospheric music filling every corner of the Tallinn-Stockholm ship! You can rock along to the Italian house band in Starlight and listen to relaxing lounge music with vocals in Piano Bar. And of course, the shows also have an Italian theme – four times per cruise! One of them is Top 40 Italia – the best of the Italian 00s in a fast-paced pop show!
Carnival in Venice – onboard!
You simply have to see the amazing costumes and beautiful masks that the characters wear as they walk around the ship. It's truly enchanting! And wait, was that just an Italian marionette puppet singing Verdi's La Traviata? And did that decorated lamp just move?
Experience Italo Disco at sea
Tallinn On the Baltic Queen, our wonderful DJ will be playing all your favourite Italian hits to keep the ship glowing all night! Get ready for an evening filled with rhythms that will get your heart pounding and your feet dancing! We're bringing you the very best of Italian music, straight from Italy's glittering music scene.

Per tutti i bambini!
- activities for the younger ones onboard
Oh, goodness, no! We wouldn't dream of offering a football tournament in the middle of the Promenade with Harry the Seal himself. It's getting pretty tricky with his paws! But don't worry, there are plenty of other fun activities for children at the Beat Boat Festival in Italy. How about colouring in Italian drawings, getting cool fake tattoos, taking part in family quizzes or making your very own carnival mask? It's going to be so much fun!
Note that the offer differs per route - you will always find what is offered for children in the cruise program on board.
