By Kerri Morin | March 10, 2026

Tickets for the Capitol Centre’s Summer Cruise Series aboard the Chief Commanda II go on sale tomorrow, March 11 at 12:00 noon! The Capitol Centre is expanding the series again with the addition of a fourth cruise- an 80’s music theme! The ever-popular Blues Cruise, Country Cruise, and Classic Rock Cruise will be back again.

80’s Cruise with Birds of a Feather- Friday, July 10

Classic Rock Cruise with Blue Screw- Friday, July 24

Country Cruise with The County- Friday, August 7

Blues Cruise with The Jesse Thomas Band- Friday, September 4

All four cruises will set sail at 7:00 pm, with boarding starting at the Government Dock at 6:30 pm, for a sunset cruise around Lake Nipissing ending around 10:00 pm. Tickets for individual cruises can be purchased, but a 4-cruise package is also available.

“The community response has been fantastic for our Summer Cruise Series with all 3 cruises selling out last season,” says Dan Misturada, Director of Programming at the Capitol Centre. “Based on feedback for an additional cruise with a different theme, we are ecstatic to be adding an 80's cruise this year to the lineup. We look forward to celebrating a great night of 80's music and seeing everyone's best retro outfits!"
