Taking place on Thursday 22 January 2026 at the Southbank Centre, Cunard and Letters Live present a special one night collaboration celebrating the enduring art of letter writing, inspired by life at sea.
Titled The Hours Between, the evening explores how the calm and rhythm of ocean travel have long created space for reflection, creativity, and connection. Cunard’s ships have welcomed generations of writers, thinkers, and artists; from Virginia Woolf and Noël Coward to Elizabeth Taylor and David Bowie, each finding inspiration in time spent at sea, part of a literary heritage spanning more than 185 years.
Curated by Letters Live, the programme brings together a carefully selected collection of correspondence inspired by travel and human connection, capturing the wit, emotion, and timeless relevance of letters across generations. This exclusive event marks the next chapter in Cunard’s cultural collaborations, offering audiences a meaningful storytelling experience rooted in reflection, creativity, and connection.
Date: Thursday 22 January 2026 at 7.30pm
Address: Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre, London
