Female-led music and entertainment company Femme It Forward is joining forces with Sixthman, the leader in festivals and music cruises for more than two decades, and music-led destination experience company Vibee, to present the inaugural voyage of Femmeland At Sea, sailing February 20-23, 2026 from Miami, FL to Nassau, Bahamas aboard Norwegian Pearl. The cruise marks Femme it Forward’s first women-centered voyage in the Caribbean and will offer uniquely curated activities, live podcast recordings, parties, wellness sessions, mentorship labs, wine tastings, karaoke, and live performances from Award-winning singer/actress Keyshia Cole, GRAMMY® Award-winning superstar Monica, and Multi-Platinum vocal trio SWV.
“As we celebrate our 5th anniversary, we are thrilled to announce our first-ever cruise — a vision I’ve had since our launch in 2020. I have always been bold about what Femme It Forward stands for and the experiences we create with women at the center. And despite the current optics and everything around us demanding we shrink, we will continue to do more - create more opportunities, make space for more representation, and curate more experiences that amplify the voices of women everywhere," says Femme It Forward Founder and CEO Heather Lowery.
The first-ever cruise experience from Femme It Forward, Femmeland at Sea, will be a one-of-a-kind journey where creativity, collaboration, and empowerment take center stage. From artist performances, live podcasts, and party activations to wellness sessions and mentorship labs, every moment on Femmeland at Sea is designed to honor, empower, and inspire. The all-star lineup includes live recordings of such popular podcasts as Keep It Positive Sweetie (hosted by Crystal Renee Hayslett) and Let’s Try This Again with B. Simone. A jam-packed schedule of events and experiences will showcase a diverse roster of special guests including wellness with WalkGood LA, Pretty Vee, Pretty Girls Sweat, and Morning Mindset with Tai, plus an immersive array of uniquely curated activities spanning workshops, wine tastings, panels with talent and industry leaders, Femme Salon, Femme Mentorship (including Speed Mentoring and Office Hours led by Next Gem Femme and MUSE mentors, Trap Karaoke, Black Market Flea, Kirk Franklin’s Sunday School, #MusicSermon LIVE, and so much more.
