Norwegian Cruise Line and MSG Entertainment announced that the Rockettes will christen Norwegian Breakaway as the official Godmothers, strengthening the ship's ties to New York.
The christening ceremony will take place in New York City on May 8, 2013 on board Norwegian Breakaway. The partnership with the Rockettes will include Norwegian Cruise Line as the designated "Official Cruise Line" of the Rockettes and Radio City Music Hall, and as the "Official Partner" of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular. As part of their role as Godmothers, two Rockettes will sail aboard the first six sailings of Norwegian Breakaway, beginning May 12, 2013, and the first sailing of each month thereafter, taking part in special events for guests to enjoy.
The larger partnership across the MSGE properties, Radio City Music Hall, the Radio City Christmas Spectacular and the Rockettes, will create brand exposure for Norwegian Cruise Line at Radio City Music Hall, including onsite venue presence during the 2012 production of the Christmas Spectacular. Guests attending this year's Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall can participate in the "Spectacular Sweeps," a sweepstakes that can be entered right from their seats with the opportunity to win one of two cruises for a family of four on Norwegian Breakaway.
Norwegian Cruise Line will have a year-round display in Radio City Music Hall's Grand Lounge that features an 11-foot replica of Norwegian Breakaway, along with information on the ship's unique attributes, entertainment, dining, destinations and more.
Onboard Norwegian Breakaway, the Rockettes will be showcased with a variety of offerings, including a historical retrospective in the ship's library, exclusive fitness class designed by the Rockettes, featured beverages and more. On select sailings, guests will have the exclusive opportunity to meet two of the Rockettes. Sailing on the first six cruises from New York, as well as the first sailing of every month, two Rockettes will offer special fitness classes, photo opportunities, meet and greet speaker series and more.
