About

Mayflower 400 UK was an honest, broad and inclusive commemoration of the ship’s sailing from England to America and its often challenging legacy.

It marked the 400^th anniversary year from 2018 through 2021 like never before in history.

For the first time, audiences across the globe were taken far beyond the story of the ‘Pilgrim Fathers’ and the one-dimensional version of the Mayflower voyage.

Mayflower 400 examined the history from multiple angles, explored the experiences of those impacted and told of the ruthless consequences of colonisation.

This information was created by Mayflower 400 during the anniversary 2020-21 and to the best of our knowledge at that time.

About Mayflower 400

The Mayflower 400 commemoration was a shared history of four nations – the Wampanoag, UK, USA and Netherlands – each committed to unpacking the untold stories and highlighting the experiences of different ethnic groups both in history and today as well as studying both the religious and commercial reasons for the Pilgrims’ journey.
