Liverpool’s New Cruise Terminal Takes Shape | Liverpool News

Author: The Daily News Now! September 17, 2026 Duration: 1:47

Liverpool’s historic Princes Dock is set for a major transformation as an old, unsafe timber jetty and adjacent concrete wharves are demolished to make way for a brand-new cruise terminal. After a previous $36 million project was scrapped due to delays and cost overruns, Peel Ports has teamed up with Global Ports Holding to restart the initiative—with a fresh investment aimed at turning Liverpool into a top-tier cruise hub. The new floating pontoon will handle two large ships simultaneously, boosting daily passenger capacity to 7,000 and expected annual visitors from 186,000 to 400,000. This upgrade not only modernizes infrastructure but also promises a significant economic boost, building on the current terminal’s $110 million contribution to the local economy.
