Princess Cruises will mark its 60th year of operations with a special 14-day Mexican Riviera voyage departing from Los Angeles on Dec. 6, 2025. The sailing onboard Royal Princess will follow a similar route to the company's first cruise in 1965. The voyage is on sale now.
The cruise line also announced that The Temptations will perform during the anniversary sailing. (The Motown group gave a preview performance of "My Girl" onboard Discovery Princess on Jan. 4, 2025, coinciding with the song's 60th anniversary.)
Jill Whelan, known for her role as Vicki Stubing in "The Love Boat" television series, (the 1977 pilot was filmed onboard Princess’ original Sun Princess in Mexico) will host the commemorative cruise in her capacity as Princess Cruises’ Celebrations Ambassador.
"As we prepare to celebrate our 60th anniversary, we can't help but look back at where it all began with one ship sailing to Mexico," said Gus Antorcha, president of Princess Cruises.
The itinerary includes overnight stays in Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta, with additional stops in Loreto, Manzanilla and Mazatlan. Princess plans to announce more anniversary-related activities and special guests in the coming months.
Princess Cruises currently operates 16 ships. The company will launch a new vessel, Star Princess, in October 2025.
