UPDATE (July 5, 2016 at 5.16pm CST): The Wavey Cruise Music Festival has been cancelled due to permit problems. More info here.

Party cruises have become all the rage, with everyone from Weezer to Rob Gronkowski setting off to sea in search for a good time. Now the concept is coming to Shanghai when the Wavey Cruise Music Festival departs to Busan, South Korea and back again from August 24-28.


International stalwarts like Aly & Fila, DJ Krush, Kode 9, Tenishia, Scratcha DVA, Jurassic 5's DJ Nu-Mark and so much more join basically all of China's underground staples for five days and four nights of shenanigans.

Partiers will hop aboard the luxurious Mariner of the Seas where they can explore its 15 decks, 11 pools, 17 bars and 10 themed dance areas.
