Swindon Pickleball and Swindon Travel Hub are excited to announce the return of the Pickleball Festival Cruises in May 2026. Following the success of previous events, these sailings promise plenty of on-court action, stunning destinations, and the chance to meet fellow pickleball enthusiasts.
The first cruise departs 4 May 2026 for five nights, visiting Southampton, Rotterdam (overnight), Cherbourg, Bruges (Zeebrugge), and returning to Southampton.
The second cruise sets sail 9 May 2026 for seven nights, travelling from Southampton to Edinburgh (South Queensferry) and Norway (Sandnes, Haugesund, Kristiansand) before returning to Southampton.
Both cruises include a Premium Drinks Package and a minimum of two hours of pickleball daily, though last time players enjoyed up to eight hours each day.
Cabins are limited to ensure the number of participants remains manageable, giving players maximum court time and a more enjoyable experience on board.
“Everyone who joined last year had an incredible time on and off the courts,” said Shaun Jones of Swindon Travel Hub. “We’re thrilled to offer these cruises again — it’s a perfect mix of travel, sport, and socialising.”
As an added bonus, the price for the cruises has been adjusted slightly, making it even easier for players to join. Inside and balcony cabins are competitively priced, giving guests a fantastic holiday with plenty of pickleball included.
Those wishing to join one — or both — of the cruises can find full details can be found online www.swindontravelhub.co.uk and can be booked by calling 01793 272432.
