New Titanic Museums is Opening Soon in Belfast


When it finally opens its shimmering doors on 31st March, Titanic Belfast will be the largest Titanic visitor experience in the world. Considering the ship was born in Belfast, built by Belfast and imagined by Belfast – there’s only one place that could do such an incredible tribute to the ship and its story.

The spectacular building that has been piercing the city’s skyline with its intriguing angles was designed to replicate the hulls of four ships – aluminum never looked so good. This will be a full-sensory event that takes visitors from construction to completion and eventual disaster. Promising state-of-the-art multimedia installations, a walk through the entire building, a replica of the ship’s grand staircase and even a ride through a reconstructed shipyard – it will go as deep as the wreck itself.

Even if you been in the Irish south counties you still need to head up & discover the northern ones!
