We are thrilled to be back for a 6th year. One massive boat, 340 people (dressed in red and white), Ottawa’s largest floating dance floor, 3 bars…you get the picture. Go to www.mycanadaday.com for details and ticket info.
We’re back for a fifth year in a row folks! Keep in my mind that since Canada Day falls on a Friday this year we are expecting a sold-out boat even faster than usual. Avoid disappointment and get your tickets early!
We’re pleased to announce that the Canada Day Boat Cruise Party is back for 2010. This year we’re going back to our roots and keeping it simple: One boat + 340 people + Ottawa’s largest floating dance floor + 3 bars = one solid party!
Ok gang, looks like the weather man isn’t stopping any of you. Both boats are almost fully packed and last minute purchases are still coming through! I had a quick peak at the weather network and noticed that the sun is now peaking through those thundershowers! Keep your fingers crossed…Regardless, it will be a good excuse to play AC/DC’s Thunderstruck while cruising the river and sipping on some cold ones!
The Canada Day Cruises set sail for the Ottawa River in less than 10 days! Chances are you’re probably still trying to figure out which boat your friends will be on – which is wise, however you may want to make a decision before we are forced to put up the “sold-out” sign on our website for the 3rd year in a row.
Let us spell out your Canada Day Cruise options in more detail so you can make an informed decision.
Option #1: “Soak Up The Sun Cruise”
You can’t beat the original Canada Day Cruise. You leave the dock at 3pm and settle in for a 4-hour booze cruise along the scenic Ottawa River with 330 of your countrymen and countrywomen. Soak up that beautiful warm sunshine as the Ottawa skyline unfolds in front of your sunglass covered eyes. Enjoy 2 levels of entertainment: upstairs – patio, downstairs – dance floor. This cruise is ideal for: Canada Day Cruise veterans and Canucks that crack a beer at 11am. (more…)
If you’re on Facebook, be sure to hit up our official event page here. You can send an official invite to your own friends and see who is able to attend!
To reach a broader audience this year and pack two boats, we have decided to reach out and use a variety of online channels beyond simply our website. Here they are in no particular order:
It’s back bigger and better than ever for the 2009 event! You asked for it, Ottawa’s wildest Canada Day party has expanded to two boats! One will take place at the regular rockin’ 3pm-7pm time slot, then a late night boat will cruise from 8pm-11pm to provide you with the best fireworks view in the city! More details and regular updates coming soon…In the meantime, here is the video from last year’s boat cruise…
