During November and December, you’ve probably heard music coming from Puget Sound. You’re not crazy and it’s not sirens trying to lure you into the water. Rather, it’s Argosy Cruises Christmas Ship Festival. The unique festival is back for its 72nd year and it’s looking better than ever.

Watch as hundreds of shimmery white lights light up the darkness of the Puget Sound while sailing to different Puget Sound waterfront communities. Just how many? Around 40 in all. It’s a celebration truly heard around the sound as onboard choirs sing the tunes of Christmas to guests aboard, to follow boats, and to communities gathered onshore.
