Nope! We provide high-quality equipment onboard. Just bring your A-game.

YES – if there is an even number of SOLO registrants. If you’re solo, we recommend first attending a qualifier or finding a teammate locally for best odds. However, if you cannot find one, you can still sign up. Bags at Sea will match as many solos as possible, but we cannot guarantee a match. 

Yup! Young cornhole legends are welcome. As long as they’re rolling with a parent or guardian and registered as part of a team, they can toss right alongside the grown-ups. Just follow the cruise rules, bring the hype, and let those bags fly!

Bags at Sea partners with major, reputable cruise lines to deliver world-class amenities, entertainment, and service. Full ship details are released with each sailing announcement.

Cancellation policies follow cruise line guidelines plus any event-specific terms. Full details are provided during registration before checkout.

Absolutely! Guests can watch all matches, cheer on players, attend the welcome party, and enjoy every part of the vacation experience.

Drinks are not included by default, but guests can purchase beverage packages during registration (when available) or directly with the cruise line.

• Comfortable clothing
• Athletic shoes
• Sun protection
