Hunters & Collectors’ Mark Seymour will embark on an exclusive Chimu Adventures Antarctic performance voyage in December 2026.

The one-of-a-kind ‘Best of Antarctica: The Holy Grail’ 11-day voyage enables fans to see Seymour perform live on board against the Antarctic backdrop and follows the success of a similar 2024 expedition cruise with singer-songwriter Paul Kelly.

The Antarctic itinerary departs Ushuaia on 6 December 2026 and includes crossing the Drake Passage and exploring the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula.
