Activites on board QM2

On every Queen Mary 2 voyage, you can engage in our signature Insights programme, where distinguished speakers from fascinating fields share stories about their lives and work. These talks, lectures, and presentations span a wide range of topics, from history and science to art, literature, current events, and more. 
 
Selected voyages, such as Event Voyages, also invite you to participate in interactive Q&amp;As, workshops, or even unique dining experiences. Perhaps you’ll master the perfect pirouette with an English National Ballet choreographer or sharpen your writing skills with an acclaimed author.

Do you dream of gliding across a dancefloor as effortlessly as Grace Kelly? Or perfecting the art of a perfectly shaken martini? With a host of classes throughout each day on board, you could come away from your cruise with a whole new skillset. 
 
Discover which food and wine pairings make the perfect match with our Sommeliers or let our resident dance instructors lead you in a fiery tango. Summon your inner artist in a watercolour art class or follow-along with our mixologists as they demonstrate how to create our Signature Commodore Club cocktails.

From team sports to guided workouts, you’ll find all kinds of ways to stay active on board Queen Mary 2. Keep your golf skills up to par with a few strokes in the open-deck golf nets or go head-to-head with fellow guests in a table tennis tournament. If you’re a keen walker, the Promenade Deck is the perfect place to get your steps in, while gym lovers will find everything they need to stay in shape at the fitness centre, including resistance weights and cardio machines. 
 
You could try your hand at foil fencing (adults 18+ only), stretch into the day with a morning yoga class, or swim a few lengths in the pool. There’s also the chance to shoot some hoops on the basketball court or get a team together for a friendly five‑a‑side football game.

With one of the largest collections of books at sea, Queen Mary 2’s library is a book lovers’ dream. In this quiet sanctuary, you can lose yourself in a compelling story against a backdrop of stunning sea views. 
 
You’ll find over 6000 tempting titles, covering everything from travel guides and memoirs to science fiction and fantasy. Perhaps you’ll be gripped by a swashbuckling adventure or caught up in a fated love story between star‑crossed soulmates? 
 
If you'd rather read under sunny skies or over a coffee in Carinthia Lounge, loan out your book for the duration of your voyage. Just remember to return it before you disembark.
