Four Cunard Queens Unite on Mersey for First Time
22 Apr
Summary
- All four Cunard ocean liners will gather on the River Mersey in May 2028.
- This marks the first time Cunard's four flagship vessels have assembled.
- The event celebrates Cunard's founding in Liverpool and maritime heritage.
Liverpool is set to host an extraordinary maritime spectacle in May 2028, when all four of Cunard's flagship ocean liners will converge on the River Mersey. This historic occasion will see the Queen Elizabeth, Queen Victoria, Queen Mary 2, and Queen Anne assembled together for the very first time. The event holds special significance as Cunard was founded in Liverpool, the city considered its spiritual home. This planned reunion underscores the enduring bond between the cruise line and its place of origin.
The gathering also coincides with the 20th anniversary of Liverpool's designation as European Capital of Culture, with the city planning a year of celebratory events. Notably, the Queen Mary 2's arrival will be its first transatlantic crossing from New York to Liverpool in 60 years, a journey not made by a Cunard liner since the RMS Sylvania in 1966. This spectacular assembly promises a poignant tribute to maritime history and the city's vibrant cultural landscape.
