CMV’s Magellan will be in Liverpool on June 6 joining in the many events staged by the city to mark the 50th anniversary release of The Beatles' Sergeant Pepper album
In June, Cruise and Maritime Voyages (CMV) is celebrating the naming of its latest addition Columbus, and also the 50th Anniversary of the release of The Beatles record Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.

CMV’s Magellan will be in Liverpool on June 6 joining in the many events staged by the city and marketing arm, Cruise Liverpool, which is celebarting its 10th anniversary this year.

CMV was the first cruise line to use the new Liverpool Cruise Terminal as a turnaround port on May 29, 2012 when the Countess of Derby named the ship.

Cruise Liverpool has organised an exclusive quayside concert to compliment CMVs special on board cabaret show with live music on the theme ‘Summer of Love’ named after the hippie concert held in June in San Fancisco 50 years ago.

After the evening show on board, Magellan will sail to the Norwegian Fjords on a nine night cruise.

The original Sergeant Pepper record was released June 1, 1967. Co-incidently, a new stereo re-mix produced by Giles Martin (son of the well known Beatles orchestrator George Martin) together with Sound engineer Sam Odell has just been released.
