ESN Sea Battle
Join the journey of legends
ESN Sea Battle has been taking brave international students on an adventure for nearly 20 years. Since its inception in 2005, Sea Battle has visited almost all countries around the Baltic Sea, welcomed world-famous artists – and made history as the most international dance party on planet Earth (yes, we’re in the Guinness Book of World Records).



This isn’t just a cruise; it’s a legendary journey of epic proportions. We bring together youth and students from all over the world and provide an experience like no other. Imagine a cruise ship for over 2000 people, all there for Sea Battle. Then add fun activities, good food, new cities to explore and parties on a whole new level.
The 32nd edition, setting sail this November, will take us to the historic Estonian capital of Tallinn. And, if you’re eager to explore Stockholm, you can also join us for our Pre-Event the day before the cruise.
Our activities
Not an ordinary cruise
Here’s the least what you can expect from ESN Sea Battle!

With multiple clubs of differing sizes on board of the ship and famous, international DJs coming to Sweden for the first time only at ESN Sea Battle, the parties are sure to be remembered for a long time. Let go of all inhibitions and dance as much as you can during the Power Hour.

Join the pre-event and explore the “Venice of the North” Stockholm through a Viking Scavenger Hunt. You can also book the guided tour through the Baltic city of Tallinn. In addition, you also have the opportunity to go on a food tour with options suggested by us.

Every participant of the ESN Sea Battle gets a Goodie Bag with small gifts and trinkets that will forever remind you of the extraordinary experience.

Meet new people in the Speed Friending Event, prove your niche knowledge in Pub Quizzes, become a warrior of the sea in the Sea Trials or compete against other teams in Jeopardy.

Dine in one of the five restaurants on board, including the buffet which serves free beer and wine for everyone. Or enjoy a drink in the three different bars and buy food, clothes, cosmetics and more in the four different duty free shops on the cruise.

No matter if you are the next Adele or prefer to sing to your shower head only, a singalong session with the other participants is always programmed to be fun.

Whether you want to learn hip hop, shuffling or twerking, you will be able to during our onboard dance classes. Or you can start the morning off right with Morning Yoga.

ESN Sea Battle is safe for everyone and promotes safe partying for all participants, so everyone can enjoy themselves. The Drink More Water initiative makes sure that everyone drinks responsibly and stays hydrated.

Enjoy the onboard entertainment from the Tallink Silja Line including live performances and Troubadour. You can also join the pre-event in Stockholm to get a first taste of what the festival on the sea will be like.
