Queen Mary Tickets
Step aboard one of maritime history's most famous ships with Queen Mary tickets. This retired 1930s ocean liner, permanently docked in Long Beach, offers you complete access to explore her legendary Art Deco interiors, historic exhibits, and wide open decks at your own pace. The Queen Mary served dual roles as both a luxury transatlantic liner carrying celebrities and dignitaries, and later as a crucial WWII troopship ferrying Allied soldiers across dangerous waters.
Your entry ticket grants access to the ship's meticulously preserved corridors, first-class staterooms, grand ballrooms, and the commanding wheelhouse. Walk through original fittings and hand-crafted woodwork that have remained largely unchanged since her heyday.

Allow 2-3 hours to explore the self-guided areas of the ship thoroughly. The Queen Mary is permanently docked at 1126 Queens Highway in Long Beach, approximately 25 miles south of downtown Los Angeles. Many areas of the ship are accessible, though some historic sections feature narrow corridors and steep stairs typical of 1930s maritime design.
