Christmas decor?

[Mudhen]

Does anyone know when the QM2 begins to decorate for Xmas? 

[LadyL1]

Last year when we were on the QV Caribbean cruise Nov-Dec, a Canadian company came on board for a few days to beautifully attire the ship in decorations. We spoke to them and they told us that for the past few years they had done all the Cunard ships. With this in mind, QM2 will probably be festooned sometime in early December.

Sounds great! Thank you!

We've done this cruise a few times, by the end of the cruise, almost everything should be ready for Christmas.  It's so pretty.

Pic from Nov 30, 2016, decorations started around the 28th, fun to see more and more appear each day..on same cruise this year starting Nov 25th...heard the same thing about the Canadian company

What a lovely photo! We board on the 25th as well ! Will look forward to viewing some of these great decorations!

I was onboard QM2 for the late November Caribbean Cruise in 2016 and most of the decorations were in place (more added during the voyage).

Last year there was not one iota of decoration on the same cruise, but that may have been due to the movie premier that was held in New York the evening the ship returned.

We were on the Xmas cruise last year so the decorations must have been done after the premiere...was perfectly decorated when we got on dec 22nd

When does the gingerbread village appear? 

 

What are the highlights on the Xmas decorations? The tree and the gingerbread village?

 Pic of ginger house from 2016, if I recall it was a chocolate train last year but can’t find a picture 

[ExArkie]

I had this picture of the train.  According to the display, it was made from 60 kg of Godiva chocolate,

The characters from Wind in the Willows seem to be on board every Christmas!!  Clearly they have good taste in how to spend their holiday 😁
