A bulk of the ship, including the Queen Mary Hotel, will remain closed for repairs through early 2023.
Long Beach’s historic Queen Mary will partially reopen to the public — for the first time since its March 2020 closure — for one-hour, guided tours through select areas of the ship later this week, the city announced on Monday, Dec. 12.
Hosted by a historical docent, the tours will feature a walk through selected areas of the Queen Mary Promenade Deck including the Promenade Shops, Observation Bar, Queen Salon, and Royal Salon. Attendees will learn about the ship’s history — both haunted and otherwise, according to the announcement.
The city and Evolution estimated in June that the $2,870,500 repairs would be completed, and the ship would reopen, by October. But when that date came and went, Long Beach pushed back the re-opening date once again and allocated another $1 million from the city’s Tidelands Area Fund to pay for more repairs.
