Plain Sailing For Hull 2017’s Latest Partnership P&O Ferries

You’ve experienced Made in Hull the installation, now check out Made in Hull, the mini cruise.

Following the success of Hull UK City of Culture 2017’s opening event Made in Hull, which attracted more than 342,000 people over seven days, P&O Ferries is celebrating its partnership with Hull 2017 by launching a Made in Hull themed mini cruise.

The cruise, which sails to Amsterdam and Rotterdam on 24 February, brings together Hull born and bred singers and songwriters, including rock’n’roll band Audio Subscene, psychedelic garage band The Black Delta Movement and ska band Bud Sugar, plus comedians Gary Jennison, Gina Jenkinson, Jack Gleadow, Jed Salisbury and Steve Rimmer.

Sarah Rosier, Head of Tourist Sales & Marketing at P&O Ferries, said:

“We are excited to be at the heart of bringing new and repeat visitors to Hull and promoting the city as a cultural destination.

“Hull 2017’s first season Made in Hull celebrates the local talent so we wanted to show our support by putting something on that replicates that spirit on one of our ships.”

Martin, CEO and Director of Hull 2017 added:

“We are delighted to welcome P&O Ferries on-board as a major partner. The partnership gives us a real boost in our efforts to champion Hull as a gateway to and from mainland Europe.

“P&O Ferries has embraced our opening season by choosing to showcase up-and-coming musicians and comics. But we also look forward to working with the team on a special project in our next season Roots and Routes, which will welcome talent from Rotterdam into the city. And as the year draws to a close, P&O will also play a valuable part in helping us Tell the World about Hull.”
