K-LOVE Cruise

The K-LOVE Cruise brought together the contemporary Christian music community for a week at sea aboard Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas: seven days of live music, worship, and programming across multiple venues on the ship. With artists, hosts, and thousands of fans all under one roof, the production demands of an event like this don't stop when the ship leaves port.

Stacked Hearts served as stage manager for the ship's primary auditorium, leading talent and crew through daily rehearsals, sound checks, and multiple live performances. Stacked Hearts coordinated directly with the cruise ship crew to keep production seamlessly integrated into the rhythm of the ship's operation. Beyond the main stage, a float crew deployed across the vessel to run audio and lighting for smaller performances throughout the ship, from musical artists to a speed painter to illusionists. The experience extended well beyond the main auditorium and into every corner of the cruise.
