HRH The Princess Royal will attend Cunard's 185th anniversary celebrations this month
Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal will lead Cunard's much-anticipated 185th anniversary celebrations in Liverpool on 27 May, as the luxury cruise line marks 185 years of maritime heritage.
The festivities will begin on 26 May, when Cunard's newest ship, Queen Anne, arrives in the Mersey—almost a year to the day since her historic naming ceremony in Liverpool, Cunard's spiritual home.
Cunard is honoured to welcome Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal for the first royal tour of Queen Anne. British Army Band Catterick will signal her arrival, marking the beginning of a memorable day of celebration.
Her Royal Highness will celebrate Cunard's 185 years of maritime history, its enduring bond with Liverpool, and the leadership of Queen Anne's Captains, Dave Hudson and Inger Thorhauge.
Following this, Cunard will officially open its 185th 'Sea of Glamour' exhibition at The Royal Liver Building, joined by Queen Anne's Icons – five proud Liverpudlian women chosen to represent the city after Liverpool was named, in a world first, as Queen Anne's Godparent.
Curated by renowned photographer Mary McCartney, the exhibition will showcase the glamour, grandeur, and cultural heritage of life at sea through Cunard's illustrious 185-year history.
Katie McAlister, President of Cunard, said: "This is a landmark moment for Cunard, and we are incredibly honoured to welcome Her Royal Highness to Liverpool as we celebrate 185 years of our heritage. The opening of the Sea of Glamour exhibition is a fitting tribute to the elegance and legacy that define Cunard, and to the special bond we share with this great city."
