Tom Finizio, President

My love for travel and cruising empowered me to start the Festivals and Performances at Sea Program over 15 years ago. Since then, we have added Graduates at Sea and Dance N Drill at Sea. I am proud of our association with the cruise lines and the many tour operators who use our programs. These relationships allow us to provide you with an outstanding valuable experience, from every aspect. We look forward to servicing your group in the very near future and keeping our tradition alive.

I am happy to be a part of such a well-respected company and to be able to work with such a talented team of individuals. My 5 years experience as a high school band director has afforded me the knowledge to know what is expected of performing groups. My fellow coworkers share the same love of students that I have and desire to provide them with outstanding experiences.

With the pleasure of having three years as Executive Director for this program I have engaged over 150 adjudicators. We have worked with internationally known band, orchestra and choral conductors and educators who tell us the combination of fun and education provided by Festivals at Sea is an unbeatable duo; it is an event that the students will remember for many years. These directors have been especially pleased with adjudicators like Elliot Del Borgo, Jim Curnow, Drs. Jerry Junkin, Paula Holcomb, John Wakefield, Robert Harris, James Bankhead, and Anna Hamre. We too believe you will be pleased with your encounter onboard one of our cruises, and that your students will advance musically with the experience. I can think of no better enjoyable way to reward your students and expose them to the world's finest musicians and educators at the same time

Traveling, to me, is one of the greatest ways that a person can spend their time and money. Great memories and friendships are made while traveling in groups, and it is my pleasure to assist you with planning an exciting cruise vacation

As a member of the Festivals and Performances at Sea team for over 14 years, I have found that each year is even more fulfilling than the one before it.  I love giving students the opportunity to showcase their talents and explore exotic locations

It makes me proud to be a part of a company that really pushes itself to be the best in the student travel industry. I do my best to live up to that reputation, and the reward is meeting with a group who are having the time of their lives. Nothing could be more fun!
