Holland America and Rolling Stone Debut New Rock Show on Oosterdam; One of Four New World Stage Productions Created with RWS Global

The new entertainment lineup combines rock anthems, Broadway storytelling, disco classics and high-production theatrical performances designed to deliver more immersive evening experiences for guests.

Seattle, Wash., July 22, 2026 — Four new shows are taking center stage on Holland America Line's Oosterdam, expanding the cruise line's award-winning entertainment lineup with fresh productions and iconic collaborations. The four original shows were created exclusively for Holland America Line in partnership with RWS Global, the world leader in live moments across entertainment and sports.

The most anticipated debut is a new rock show created by RWS Global in collaboration with Rolling Stone: “Holland America Line and Rolling Stone Present, All Access: The Songs That Shaped Us.” Celebrating music from rock legends, the production follows the success of the Rolling Stone Lounge venue found on most Holland America Line ships.

"We listened to what our guests wanted—more visually impressive productions with incredible music and memorable performances—and these four new shows deliver that," said Joe Chantry, vice president of entertainment & enrichment for Holland America Line. "Working with our creative partners at RWS Global and Rolling Stone, we've developed an entertainment lineup that is bold, immersive and uniquely Holland America Line, giving guests even more reasons to make World Stage part of every evening on board."

Following its successful launch on Koningsdam, the acclaimed "Fosse and Verdon, The Duet That Changed Broadway," is now on Oosterdam. “Decadence” and “Disco Fever” complete the four new productions that are already playing on the ship’s World Stage.

“The new show with Rolling Stone leverages one of the world’s most iconic music brands to create an unforgettable live entertainment experience for Holland America Line’s guests,” said Craig Laurie, chief creative officer of RWS Global. “The extraordinary success of the Rolling Stone Lounge makes it clear that guests crave authentic, brand‑driven entertainment rooted in nostalgia. Building on a proven fan favorite, we’ve expanded the experience into a fully realized stage production featuring singers, dancers, and the band from Rolling Stone Lounge.”

“Rolling Stone has always celebrated the songs and artists that shape how people feel, connect and create memories, and this partnership with Holland America Line brings that spirit to audiences in a fresh, immersive way,” said Julian Holguin, chief executive officer of Rolling Stone. “We’re excited to build on the momentum of Rolling Stone Lounge with a new live experience that feels both unmistakably Rolling Stone and perfectly suited for guests looking to engage with music in a meaningful, memorable setting.”
