Tall Ships in Liverpool this weekend
July 16, 2008 12:00 AM
Enjoy the biggest gathering of tall ships you will see anywhere in Europe this year.
Over 70 sailing vessels will fill Liverpool's quaysides and docks - one of the world's greatest ports and most famous rivers - The Mersey. The visiting fleet will be berthed in the city's Wellington and Albert docks.
From the moment the ships start to arrive, crews and visitors from around the globe will experience an unrivalled welcome in a city famous for knowing how to enjoy itself.
There will be plenty of opportunities to climb aboard and find out more about the realities of life at sea as well as music, performers and displays to enjoy.
Over three days from July 18th - 20th, the start of the Tall Ships Race 2008 will provide everyone with hundreds of opportunities to be amazed, amused and educated but most of all to have a great time. On 21 July the ships will parade of sail where they begin their journey to Norway.
We hope you enjoy one of the highlights of Liverpool's year as capital of Culture.
