Cunard’s Queen Mary 2 will take center stage in America’s 250th anniversary celebrations through a partnership with Sail4th 250. As the only ocean liner, it will offer guests a prime vantage point for the grand flotilla of tall ships, naval vessels, fireworks, and historic exhibitions in New York Harbor from July 3-8, 2026. The voyage continues to Newport, Rhode Island, and Halifax, Nova Scotia. Cunard President Katie McAlister calls it a “once-in-a-lifetime experience” to witness history in spectacular fashion.
