As Queen Anne prepares for her move to P&O Cruises in 2029, guests can look forward to new opportunities while enjoying her remaining Cunard voyages.

I was invited to Liverpool for Cunard's Queen Anne naming ceremony.

There was a buzz in the air as the good and the great of Britain's cruise industry mixed and mingled on board Cunard's brand-new Queen Anne during an overnight showcase event on 1st May.

Excitement is building for what promises to be the most spectacular ship's christening in many years. The venue is not Miami, New York, nor even Southampton, but Liverpool - Britain's historic maritime gateway between the Old World and the New.
