Luxury river cruise pioneer Antara Cruises has unveiled Antara Events, a new offering that transforms the Ganges into a venue for bespoke celebrations and gatherings. Hosted aboard the elegant MV Bengal Ganga, the experience combines Antara’s hallmark hospitality with curated itineraries and fully customizable event options.
Inspired by 1970s Burmese river vessels, the all-suite ship features 20 luxurious cabins, expansive lounges, and wide teakwood sundecks, setting a refined tone for intimate weddings, anniversaries, and corporate events. Guests can also enjoy open-air decks with sweeping river views, ideal for cocktail evenings or ceremonies.
The vessel is equipped with a lounge featuring audiovisual facilities and Wi-Fi, catering to business retreats and product launches in a private, club-like ambiance. Guests are treated to Antara’s all-inclusive service, from regional and international cuisine to wellness experiences like spa therapies and sunrise yoga.
Each event can be tailored in every detail, from décor and dining to music and sailing routes. For an added touch of magic, Antara offers Sandbank Parties, exclusive gatherings on secluded riverbanks under the stars. Operating from Kolkata, MV Bengal Ganga reimagines the art of celebration on India’s most iconic river.
