| The fourth edition of the European Blues Cruise In partnership with MSC, the Association BLUES IN MARSEILLE and VOYAGES BYBLOS reprogram the "EUROPEAN BLUES CRUISE" in 2018, starting from 3 cities! Inspired by the famous "Blues Cruise" that takes place every year in the United States, the European Blues Cruise will sail again on the Mediterranean in September 2018 aboard American and European Blues Artists accompanied by their Musicians. During this cruise: 12 blues concerts on different bridges. A departure from Nice and Genoa on September 10th and from Marseille on September 11th for the European Blues Cruise 2018 While many festivals around the world honor the Blues, only the United States has their "Blues Cruise", a festival of blues at sea. Lisa Banoyan, president of the Association Blues In Marseille and director of Travels Byblos has decided to change that! Passionate about blues, Lisa Banoyan regularly crossed the Atlantic to attend concerts at American blues clubs and the Chicago Blues Festival (the largest blues festival in the world). She had the idea to organize a festival of Blues in Marseille, highlighting the assets of her city and building on its twenty years of experience in the field of tourism. Thus was born the first "European Blues Cruise" (the European Blues Cruise) in 2014! Passengers from all over Europe were thrilled to experience this unprecedented Blues experience in 2014, 2015 and 2016, combining their holiday with musical passion. The Association Blues In Marseille has decided to reiterate the event. In partnership with MSC, the first cruise company in Europe and the Marseille agency VOYAGES BYBLOS, (established since about fifteen years in the 7th district) the association BLUES IN MARSEILLE launches for its fourth European Blues Cruise! Departing from Nice / Genoa and Marseille, the European Blues Cruise 2018 will allow you to spend five unforgettable days on the Mediterranean, with as Traveling Companions: great Artists of the Chicago Blues and Mississippi scene and renowned European Artists.
