Sailing with the Stars: Catch Amotti, KIIRAS and French Papa on Dream Cruises This 2026
Travellers, if you have been waiting for a brilliant excuse to pack your best resort wear and set sail, this is absolutely it. Dream Cruises is officially turning ten this year. Let us assure you, they know exactly how to throw a spectacular party. To celebrate a decade of elevating holidays on the high seas, the renowned StarDream Cruises group is rolling out the red carpet for 2026.
Prepare to be thoroughly entertained because the anniversary lineup is positively dripping with star power. Guests can anticipate exclusive onboard highlights featuring the sensational K-pop group KIIRAS, alongside appearances from the incredibly fit Amotti from Physical: 100. Foodies are also in for a massive treat with Chef Tommie Lee, affectionately known as French Papa from Culinary Class Wars Season 2, bringing his unmatched culinary magic on board.
If musical theatre makes your heart sing, mark your calendars. In June 2026, the majestic flagship Genting Dream will officially debut Forever Broadway. Conceived in New York and brought to life in collaboration with Broadway Asia International, this exclusive production promises world-class theatrical flair right in the middle of the ocean.
Dining, as seasoned cruisers will attest, is often the quiet hero of any voyage. And, that applies to Dream Cruises too. Expect a generous spread of international fare, balanced with authentic Asian flavours that feel comfortingly familiar. What sets the experience apart, especially for Malaysian travellers, is its inclusivity. The cruise line is among the first in Asia to offer certified halal and vegetarian or Jain options, making it refreshingly easy to dine with peace of mind.
As Michael Goh, President of StarDream Cruises, perfectly explains, the company has spent over three decades mastering what Asian guests truly value. Today, they connect travellers to more than 50 destinations across the continent. By bringing multiple countries within reach, they enable guests to experience diverse cultures while actively supporting the local economies and tourism growth of the ports they visit.
With a fleet that includes Genting Dream under Dream Cruises, as well as Star Navigator and Star Voyager under StarCruises, travellers can easily embark from various Asian cities. You can choose from brilliant two to five-night itineraries sailing across Southeast Asia and East Asia, including highly sought-after ports in Japan and South Korea.
For those who prefer their holidays with a touch of exclusivity, The Palace offers a refined experience within the ship itself. Often described as a “ship within a ship”, this premium enclave features luxurious suites, private spaces and European-style butler service paired with warm Asian hospitality.
2026 is undoubtedly the year to set sail. Pack your best resort wear and prepare for an extraordinary adventure.
