Weezer have announced their very own cruise.

The band took to Twitter to announce the special event, set to take place between January 19 and 23 and sailing from Miami to the island of Cozumel off of the Gulf Coast of Mexico.

Other bands set to appear at the festival-on-sea are Dinosaur Jr, Sebadoh, Gene Ween and Dave Dreiwitz, Wavves, The Antlers, Yuck, Free Energy, Boom Bip, J Mascis (solo acoustic), Lou Barlow, Keepaway, Ozma, The Nervous Wreckords, The Knocks, Sleeper Agent and Yacht Rock Revue.

Weezer themselves are set to play two sets on board, as well as taking part in a Q&A session.

The band write on the official cruise site: "The “Destiny” is a fully functioning cruise ship and floating resort that features gourmet dining, 24-hour room service (free of charge whenever you want!), pools, hot tubs, a full-service casino, waterslide, world-class spa services and more. We’ve got more activities and events in the works. You will also get to take a photo with the band and be a part of an exclusive Q&A on the Lido deck."

Prices start at $799 per person (based on double occupancy). For more information, head over to the Weezer Cruise site.
