As part of Holland America Evolution, the cruise line is introducing new bandstands at the Lido Pool on Oosterdam and Zuiderdam, creating dedicated venues for live music and entertainment. The new additions will expand opportunities for guests to enjoy live performances throughout their cruise, with the first venue debuting on Oosterdam following its Evolution transformation in fall 2027.
The new Lido Pool bandstand creates a dedicated venue for live music in one of the ship’s most popular gathering spaces. Expanding on Holland America Line’s entertainment lineup, the addition gives guests even more opportunities to enjoy performances throughout their cruise.
“Evolution is about bringing the very best of Holland America Line to more of our fleet,” said Beth Bodensteiner, president of Holland America Line. “Over the past several years, we’ve been on a journey to expand and elevate our entertainment offerings across the fleet, guided by what our guests tell us they love most. The new Lido Pool bandstands are another step in that effort, creating more opportunities to enjoy live music and memorable performances in one of the ship’s most popular gathering spaces.”
Programming at the new venue will include a variety of musical acts, from solo performers to live bands, along with events connected to Holland America Line’s signature Orange Party and other guest-favorite traditions. The Lido Pool’s retractable glass roof allows guests to enjoy the space throughout the voyage.
Evolution Expands the Pinnacle Class Experience
The largest fleet update in the company’s 153-year history, Holland America Evolution is revitalizing six Vista and Signature Class ships with a blend of Pinnacle Class-inspired experiences, new offerings and guest favorites. The company will invest more than $500 million across the ships to enhance guest spaces, introduce new venues and add additional staterooms and suites. Oosterdam and Zuiderdam are the first two ships in the program.
In addition to the new poolside bandstands, guests sailing aboard Oosterdam and Zuiderdam following their transformations will enjoy a number of enhancements, including the introduction of the Grand Dutch Café and new staterooms and suites. Together, the updates are designed to bring some of the line’s most-loved experiences to more of the fleet while creating additional space and amenities for guests.
Bookings are now open for Oosterdam’s and Zuiderdam’s cruises following both refurbishments.
