YouTube Video Description↓
In a shocking turn of events, Anthem of the Seas surprised us all with a 3:35am arrival. You can watch it here or on the current livestream which will also have the Vancouver departure around 5pm. Go to this Vancouver Cruise Ship livestream for current view of Anthem of the Seas and departure: youtube.com/live/rxyNjFKwzJA?feature=share Set your reminders and join us Saturday, October 4 at 8:00 AM PT for a special Vancouver LIVE event featuring the highly anticipated arrival and harbour activity of Anthem of the Seas, Royal Caribbean’s Quantum-class megaship making her first and only visit to Vancouver in 2025. This is a rare and exciting moment in Vancouver’s cruise calendar — one that cruise fans, locals, and maritime watchers alike won’t want to miss. Anthem of the Seas is one of Royal Caribbean’s most technologically advanced and visually striking ships. At over 1,100 feet long and packed with signature features like the North Star observation pod, the Two70 theatre, and the iFLY skydiving simulator, she is a floating city that usually calls at ports in Europe, the Caribbean, and beyond. Seeing a ship of this size and scale docked at Canada Place with Vancouver’s harbour and mountain backdrop is a one-of-a-kind visual experience. What makes this livestream especially compelling is the ongoing question: how will Anthem of the Seas interact with Vancouver’s harbour limits and the Lions Gate Bridge? With a reported air draft that pushes the limits of the bridge’s clearance, the ship’s size raises natural curiosity about whether she can make the transit through the First Narrows. This uncertainty adds to the drama and anticipation, ensuring that ship watchers around the world will be tuned in to witness her manoeuvres. The live stream begins in the early morning at 8:00 AM PT to capture the full day of harbour activity surrounding her visit. As Anthem prepares for departure on her repositioning sailing to Hawaii, you’ll see the vibrant atmosphere of Canada Place and the Vancouver waterfront come alive: passengers boarding, provisioning and crew activity, harbour tugs standing by, and other vessels sharing the water. With three cruise ships scheduled in port that day, the harbour will be bustling, providing a steady stream of sights and stories before the evening sailaway. Throughout the broadcast, we’ll showcase the iconic Vancouver panorama — from the sails of Canada Place to Stanley Park, the North Shore mountains, and the city skyline. October light often adds extra drama, and with autumn skies, changing clouds, and the possibility of moody mountain fog, conditions will make for striking visuals. Whether Anthem remains docked or makes her eventual departure toward the Lions Gate Bridge, you’ll be there with us live to see how it unfolds. This visit is a reminder of Vancouver’s growing role as a homeport and transit hub for some of the world’s most famous cruise ships. While ships like Koningsdam, Sapphire Princess, and Nieuw Amsterdam are regular visitors, a Quantum-class ship like Anthem is a rare treat. Vancouver does see large ships occasionally during repositioning seasons, but this call is special and unrepeatable in 2025 — the only scheduled day when Anthem will be here. Viewers can look forward to: Early-morning harbour atmosphere and dockside activity at Canada Place. Anthem of the Seas towering above the Vancouver waterfront with mountain backdrops. Possible manoeuvres related to departure, tug positioning, and pilot exchanges. The suspense of whether she will attempt to pass under the Lions Gate Bridge or depart another way. Stunning wide shots of Vancouver’s harbour, skyline, and North Shore peaks in autumn light. Bonus coverage of other ships scheduled in port that day, creating a uniquely busy harbour scene. This live stream is more than just a shipwatch — it’s a front-row seat to maritime history in Vancouver, with the energy of a global cruise ship audience watching along. Whether you are a cruise enthusiast, a Royal Caribbean fan, or simply someone who loves Vancouver’s waterfront, this is a broadcast not to miss. So set a reminder, grab a coffee, and join the stream early to catch every detail of this special day. From dawn atmosphere to harbour buzz and eventually the long-anticipated departure, you’ll be part of the story of Anthem of the Seas in Vancouver — one day only, October 4, 2025. #AnthemOfTheSeas #RoyalCaribbean #VancouverLive #CanadaPlace #LionsGateBridge #CruiseLive #VancouverHarbour #QuantumClass #SailawayLive #CruiseShipWatching #VancouverCruiseSeason #LiveStream #VancouverBC
