Certainly a lot to look forward to from Cunard..
5th-7th June - The International Mersey River Festival and On the Waterfront concerts will take place on the Pier Head and Albert Dock sites.
https://www.cultureliver...-mersey-river-festival/
Ending the spectacular maritime theme is the July celebration of the first transatlantic crossing as Cunard’s flagship Queen Mary 2 sails from Liverpool, recreating the original voyage of Britannia from Liverpool to Halifax and Boston which first set out in July 1840.
4th & 5th July - Transatlantic 175
