American Cruise Lines Fleet to Dock at Levee Park Starting June 19, Boosting Winona's Local Economy

American Queen Voyages ceased operations in early 2024, but Winona is preparing to host the American Cruise Lines fleet this season. The fleet, including the American Melody, American Serenade, and American Symphony, will dock at Winona’s Levee Park 10 times this year, starting from June 19.

Volunteers from Visit Winona will greet passengers, offer visitor information, and direct guests to local attractions and businesses. The Winona County Historical Society will also conduct city tours.

The public can view the boats at the Levee, but ship tours will not be available. Public parking is located at Walnut Street and Johnson Street in downtown Winona. Please note, the docking schedule may change due to weather.

For the latest information, call 507-452-0735. A 2024 Winona Docking Schedule is available for download, detailing each ship's docking dates and times. The first docking of the American Melody is scheduled for June 19-20.

The arrival of these cruise ships is important for Winona, attracting many visitors and benefiting the local economy. Despite the cruise industry's challenges, the city is ready to welcome the American Cruise Lines fleet and its passengers.
