Liverpool Cruise Terminal
Liverpool Cruise Terminal opened in Liverpool in 2007. It provides transport for long-distance international passenger ship travel.
Originally long-distance international passenger travel by ship began in Liverpool in 1819 with the opening of the Princes' Landing Stage but this closed in 1973.[1] In 2018, a second cruise terminal building began construction.[2] In 2019, cruises departed from Liverpool Cruise Terminal to visit Iceland, Portugal, France and Norway.
