An ABBA-Themed Boat Party Will Cruise Down The Thames This Summer

Alex Landon

If ABBA floats your boat, you’ll love this floating celebration .

Ready for a top day out on the Water(loo)? This simply sensational cruise is setting off from Embankment for a smashing summer adventure, rolling down the river to the tunes of ABBA’s best hits. The ABBA Boat Party will be cruising on Saturday, August 22 — and tickets are on sale now ! Can you really afford to miss out?

A lovely tribute on the tributary (we know the Thames isn’t a tributary, but let us have this one for wordplay), the ABBA Boat Party is a three and a half hour jaunt down the river and back aboard good ship The Hurlingham. The fun begins with a complimentary drink, and Dancing Queens will no doubt make a beeline for the top deck, where a live DJ will spin out a mix of ABBA classics – along with some chart hits to switch things up a little.

ABBA Boat Party

That means stunning views of The Shard , Tower Bridge, The Globe , and a whole host of other famed sites, all set to the tune of top-notch 70s pop. If you’re worn out by all the dancing, the lower deck has a chillout area and observation platform, which is perfect for a bit of respite – or for a quick snuggle with your SO as the mellow tunes of Fernando drift from above…

To keep visitors safe and healthy, organisers will be running the ABBA Boat Party at a reduced capacity to adhere to the government’s social distancing regulations.With two floors and an outside deck, the boat is well-ventilated, and free PPE – including masks and hand sanitiser – will be on offer for anyone who’d like it, allowing you to get back to the important business of grooving along to Angel Eyes. We’re pretty confident there’s nothing quite like this floating on the Thames, so don’t miss out. Tickets will go rapidly, so just remember – The Winner Takes It All!

Chester Boat

Escape the hustle and bustle of the city, and let us sail you away along the River Dee: from the elegant waterfront on The Groves, past beautiful Georgian townhouses and manicured riverside gardens and into the green pastures of the Eaton Estate, home of the Duke of Westminster.

Open: Mon – Sun 11am – 5pm.

Address: Souters Lane, The Groves, Chester CH1 1SD.

Attraction Information

Picture yourself on a boat on a river….

Sailing’s our business: we’ve been welcoming guests on board for sightseeing cruises along Chester’s glorious River Dee for over 30 years.

We operate two types of daily sightseeing cruise:

Our delightful and restorative 30-minute City Cruise : sails past parks, meadows, and spectacular scenery along the River Dee; plenty to see and enough time for a relaxing drink from the bar. There’s at least one sailing an hour between 11am and 5pm each day, so you can often just walk up and step aboard, although we advise that you book online to guarantee a place – you can make great savings booking online too.

Our Two-hour Iron Bridge Cruise sets sail from our boat house on The Groves and heads out into the stunning Cheshire countryside. This is a wonderfully tranquil stretch of the Dee, where you might spot herons, kingfishers, dragonflies and other wildlife. We’ll pass by Heronbridge and the picturesque Eccleston Ferry, then meander around the Crook of Dee before passing under the famous Victorian iron bridge at Aldford before heading back to the city. We have two sailings a day, at noon and 2.30: perfect for a leisurely packed lunch.

Both cruises feature an informative audio commentary about the river, the city and their histories.

abba river cruise chester

If you want to see more of Chester, without pounding the pavements after disembarking, you can enjoy our historic city from an open-top bus. We’ve teamed up with City Sightseeing to offer great value combined Bus and Boat Tickets . Hop aboard, then hop on and hop off: there’s no better way to see Chester from an altogether different angle.

We’ve a range of family-friendly themed boat trips too: our monthly Fish and Chip cruise is a fantastic after-school Friday treat; join us for Curry and Quiz nights or enjoy an elegant Vintage Afternoon Tea afloat.

And when the sun goes down, we’re ready to party!  Step aboard for a night out with a difference. Our on-board DJ will play favourite floor fillers from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and beyond as you dance your way along the river. Just choose your theme – or your era! Party nights afloat are great fun for office parties, hen nights, birthdays, proms or any occasion where you want to have fun.  Find our full programme online – and save cash by booking online too.

And if you’re after something a little more exclusive, your carriage awaits! You can charter any of our three riverboats for private parties, corporate events, weddings, civil partnerships, dining or even casino nights.

Our fleet of three comfortable, recently refurbished craft all have a well-stocked, licenced bar, with bottled beers, ciders and ales; wines and spirits; soft drinks; hot drinks and snacks. They all have enclosed, heated saloons for cooler days and you’re fully protected from the elements, whatever the weather.

Our beautiful riverboat The Lady Diana holds up to 120 guests; The Mark Twain, up to 70; and The Jackie – the baby of our fleet – boasts an open-top sundeck and can accommodate 40 people over two levels. The Lady Diana and the Mark Twain are both accessible for wheelchair users: see our Access Statement for detailed information.

Cheshire Boats is a traditional, family-run business, where our passengers come first. We do everything we can to make sure you have a wonderful time.  We sail all year-round; so whatever the weather, you’ll always be guaranteed a warm welcome.

Chester River Boat Fish and Chip Cruise

We were able to park the car in the big Little Roodee car park which is right by the river and 500 metres from the boat departure point. The departure time of the boat was 7:30pm so the car park price of £1-50p (after 5:00pm) for the evening was excellent value. Fish, chips and mushy peas are served as you depart and were very edible. Ten minutes into the cruise you leave civilisation and the view is trees and bushes along the riverbank and became a bit boring, don't expect a view across the Serengeti. To compliment the fish and chips there is a well stocked bar, but don't expect duty free prices as the drinks were quite expensive. After the boat had done it's eighteen point turn to return to our departure point we were invited to play bingo. Marker pens were provided and it was a welcome distraction from the greenery. All the crew were helpful and very personable and it must be said that the cruise provided something different for a summers evening.

Hi there, Glad to hear that you had such an enjoyable time on the fish and chip cruise. It has been very popular this year and we will be looking at adding additional dates for next year. We hope to welcome you aboard again sometime soon, Many thanks

A really enjoyable 2hrs enhanced by some amusing comments. Would thoroughly recommend. although we live locally we learnt a lot about Chester & the river

Ahoy there, Glad to hear that you such a fun time on board our 2 hour cruise, We hope to welcome you aboard again soon sometime, Many thanks

I went on the Fish and Chip themed 2 hour cruise with my parents and we were all really surprised by the value for money of this attraction. Our fish and chips were served just as we cast off so arrived hot and tasty and we enjoyed them as we cruised at a leisurely pace down the river. When they were tidied away by the friendly staff we had around 20 minutes to enjoy the scenery and get another drink from the reasonably priced bar on board before the games of Bingo started on the return leg. ( The price of which was included in the trip). Then it was a nice peaceful 20mins at the end of the trip to sit back at watch the sun setting around 9.30pm before disembarking back at The Groves. We all agreed it was a really nice way to spend a Friday night and was suitable for all members of the family - though young children might get a little board after a while.

We booked the 'Mama Mia' Chester Boat party for a hen weekend (I'm not sure why it is called that as the ABBA side was limited, but the music was cheesy and perfect for us all to sing and dance to). The boat is smaller than I had expected, but it fit all of us on with lots of space for dancing. The food was terrible, sort of limp, dry and flavourless, but other than that,the evening was perfect. There is space to go upstairs to the top deck and there is a bar and dance floor downstairs. The drinks are well priced and the Captain was a good laugh as well. I would definitely recommend for a hen weekend.

We were lucky enough to take our trip on a beautiful sunny day. The ride was extremely relaxing and beautiful. Got a combo ticket with the sightseeing bus which was excellent value. Would highly recommend!!

abba river cruise chester

Ahoy there, Glad to hear that you had such a great time on one of our City cruises, hopefully we will see you aboard for a 2 hour cruise next summer! Many thanks

My boyfriend and I decided to go on a two hour cruise in at the of May, we both really enjoyed the trip. it was a really hot day so I asked one of the members of staff if it was okay for us to sit downstairs instead of the top deck which was absolutely fine and no trouble at all. We both had drinks from the bar which had a great selection of soft drinks, beers, wine and even some snacks. I would definitely recommend the tour hour tour as the commentary is really good and the view is absolutely beautiful. the staff are incredibly helpful and it's a good day out. wouldn't highly recommend!!!

We desire to grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18). No matter where we are in our spiritual journey, we have opportunities to develop to the next level of maturity. May Christ be formed in each of us as we abide in Him!

NVSTM3.jpeg

PERSONAL GROWTH

Time with abba.

Time With Abba (TWA) is the practice of entering into our heavenly Abba's presence through His daily Word. It is dedicated time to read, meditate on, pray, and respond to God's Word.

Prayer & Intercession

Prayer and intercession are our primary ministries unto the Lord. We believe in personal and corporate prayers, to align our hearts to Him and to hear what the Spirit is saying to His bride.

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS

Discipleship academy.

Our Discipleship Academy introduces students to the Bible, Bible study methods, doctrinal issues, principles of Christian living, and ministry skills to effectively serve the Lord.

Christian Ministry Certificate

*Chinese speaking

This is a basic certificate level training program, offered by A.W. Tozer Theological Seminary in the Chinese language. It moves an individual towards ministry licensure requirements within the Christian & Missionary Alliance.

Empower Women

EMPOWER is a developmental ministry certificate program designed by women for women, to move to the next level in their personal relationship with God and to walk in the fullness of their gifts and calling.

Internships

Internships​ are a great opportunity for students to gain hands-on ministry experience, receive mentorship for personal and leadership development, and explore giftings and passions for the next steps in their lives.

Graduate Church Residency

Graduate Church Residency is a 2-year program to obtain a fully funded master's degree at Crown College while getting 25 ministry hours/week. It is an opportunity for our church to invest in the lives of future church leaders.

Annual Conferences

Deeper life conference | march 8-10, 2024, missions conference | sept 13-15, 2024.

The themes of a deeper life and missions were tied together from our earliest days in The Alliance. A. B. Simpson believed that as the work of God goes deeper in us, the Word of God flows more broadly from us. God’s heart is for the world, and as our hearts are joined more intimately with His, we share His passions. This is why The Alliance is often referred to as a “deeper life and missions movement.” The deeper life finds it greatest expression when the gospel takes root and flourishes among the peoples of the world. The deeper life in Christ must take root in us before it can be extended beyond us.

Enjoy this 2.9-mile out-and-back trail near Santa Clarita, California. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of 54 min to complete. This is a popular trail for birding, road biking, and running, but you can still enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome and may be off-leash in some areas.

Nice! Water is still flowing in the river!

really nice when I went. the river was actually full and you could hear the water.

Beautiful ride in the cool crisp air post rain. The past months of storms have equated to some debris and trash flowing into the high brush areas. Hopefully this will be worked out soon, but nonetheless a lovey morning.

Paved bike path. Very easy. Little to no incline.

Beginning along “River” is a concrete Aqueduct. On the later, trail along the river is an actual riverbed with lots of woods. And greet scenery of the large hills.

No real river to speak of. Relatively flat. Be mindful of cyclists. Can go whizzing by if not being aware. Google directions found me in middle of traffic. Parked at Heritage park which is 0.8 miles from route. So that should take that it account. 4 miles altogether. So 2.5 miles is accurate. Did like some of the backyards of some of the homes. Flowers blooming and couldn’t help but take some photos.
