On their three smaller ocean cruise ships – Bolette, Borealis, and Balmoral – matches and games will be shown in public areas as well as in guest cabins.

Starting 14th June, all UEFA European Football Championship matches will be aired, with a total of 51 matches being played among 24 teams over 30 days, culminating in the final in Berlin on 14th July. Wimbledon will be shown from 1st -14th July, and from 26th July to 11th August, the Olympic Games in Paris will be available for guests to enjoy.

To enhance the sporting celebrations, an exciting new range of cocktails will be available, including the Strawberry Striker, Kick-off Collins, Matchday Mojito and Penalty Punch.

Clare Ward, Director of Product and Customer Service at Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines, said:

“We know that sporting events are important to many of our guests, and we wouldn't want them to miss out on these three key events in the sporting calendar while on board a cruise. We're thrilled to share that we will be showcasing such a wide range of significant events this summer across our fleet.

“Guests could be watching a thrilling match or an intense game, all while enjoying a perfectly themed cocktail alongside the excellent food, service, and entertainment that come with being on a Fred. Olsen cruise.”
