Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.London’s maritime heart, Royal Greenwich, will once again be home to the Tall Ships Festival this August.
Several large Tall Ships including the third-largest sailing ship in the world, Dar Mlodziezy, will be moored on the Thames. There will be daily return sailings† to Tower Bridge with unique views of many iconic London sights including the O2, the Old Royal Naval College and Canary Wharf.
Daytime and evening cruises (with fireworks) are available. Standard tickets start from £59.90.*
