On Wednesday Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess will name the world’s largest ship at Langelinie in Copenhagen.

The name giving ceremony also marks the official opening of the vessel and the adjacent public exhibition. More than 42,000 people have already booked their ticket to get on board the ship.

The name giving ceremony takes place Wednesday 25 September. Immediately after the ceremony the exhibition area will be open to the public.

Last Tuesday, the vessel, which is number two in a series of 20 Triple-E vessels, sailed through the Great Belt in Denmark on its way to Gdansk in Poland. The vessel arrived in Copenhagen on Sunday.
