Five-Masted Sailing Ship for Exclusive Corporate Events at Sea

What Does a Five-Masted Sailing Ship Offer for Events?

If you want your next corporate event to feel truly special, hosting it on a five-masted sailing ship is a sure bet. It combines the infrastructure of a professional conference venue with the one-of-a-kind atmosphere of a tall ship. And if the journey also takes you along the French and Italian Riviera, your guests’ enthusiasm is guaranteed.
OceanEvent has an especially inspiring charter cruise for up to 320 participants on the calendar from September 11–14, 2027—on board the Club Med 2.

Why the Club Med 2 Is Ideal for Your Corporate Event

The 187-meter five-masted sailing ship is ideal for events because it’s a true showstopper. With around 2,500 m² of snow-white sails, this ship makes an instant impression.
OceanEvent transforms the ship’s tiered stern into a lively meeting hub for workshops and networking events—complete with sun loungers, shaded lounges, and sweeping sea views. This is the place to be.
The Club Med 2 was modernized in 2022. With its welcoming ambiance, professional show lounge, and 210 crew members, this sailing ship has proven itself for formats such as international conferences, leadership meetings, incentives, and company anniversaries.

Your Ship at a Glance

Your guests can choose from 160 oceanview cabins:

31 suites (including 1 Owner’s Suite)
5 deluxe cabins
124 superior cabins

For Meetings and Conferences, the Club Med 2 Offers

560 m² show lounge with up to 200 seats, stage, and dance floor
Professional AV, lighting, and sound system (included in the charter price)

Culinary Experiences as Part of the Event Storyline
Culinarily, too, this tall ship is designed with events in mind. The main restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating for all guests—ideal for shared dinners, relaxed networking, or plated menus with sea views. In the elegant gourmet restaurant, OceanEvent can stage your gala dinner, Captain’s Dinner, or celebratory awards nights. Together with the crew, we can transform the spacious outdoor decks into atmospheric dine-around concepts or barbecue evenings in the pool area.

Whether formal or casual, our Senior Charter Event Managers plan the culinary program and the perfect spot on board—to match the occasion and the flow of your event.

For more than 20 years, OceanEvent has been chartering cruise ships in the world’s most beautiful coastal regions. We don’t just know the right ship for your plan—we know the officers and crews personally, understand how onboard operations work, and collaborate closely with the teams. That’s what makes the difference and turns an idea into a seamlessly delivered, exceptional cruise event.

11–14 September 2027 | 3 Nights | Roundtrip Nice

September 11 — Nice to Portovenere
Embarkation from 4:00 p.m. in Nice. As you set sail: a champagne reception at sunset as the Côte d’Azur slowly disappears astern. In the evening, the official conference kick-off in the Yacht Club Lounge marks the start of your shared journey. Overnight, you’ll set course for the Italian Riviera and Portovenere—one of Liguria’s most exclusive destinations.

September 12 — Portovenere & Cinque Terre
In the morning, you’ll arrive in Portovenere, followed by a workshop session on board with daylight, sea views, and an inspiring atmosphere. In the afternoon, enjoy time for an individual stroll through the historic town center or a boat trip along the Cinque Terre coastline. The evening is all about la dolce vita: dinner on board or a themed night with Italian touches, music, and relaxed networking under the open sky.

September 13 — Saint-Tropez & Pampelonne
Morning arrival in Saint-Tropez. Time for an individual stroll through town or a visit to the Citadel with views over the gulf. In the afternoon, hold a conference or workshop session on board—or opt for leisure time at Pampelonne’s beach clubs. In the evening, our team turns the pool deck into a White Night party zone—with subtle branding, a live band or DJ, and dancing under the stars.

September 14 — Nice
Morning arrival in the Port of Nice. Breakfast on the open deck and final conversations with sea views. Then disembarkation and an individual program in Nice, followed by airport transfer and your flight home
