    The Titanic Exhibition sails into Hall 10 at the NEC Birmingham on Saturday, 27th July! The NEC is a large exhibition centre known for hosting a variety of conferences, trade shows, live events and more!

    Getting to the NEC is easy! If you’re driving, just hop on the M6 motorway and take the A38 exit towards Birmingham, then follow the signs to the NEC. If you’re taking the train, Birmingham International Railway Station is the closest stop (it’s just a 15-minute journey away from Birmingham New Street). And if you’re travelling by bus, you can catch the X1 or X12.

    Oh and there’s onsite parking available! It’s £5 to pay for parking (we recommend booking this online before your visit!)

    What Will I See There?

    Step back in time to the Titanic as you explore a treasure trove of real objects, interactive exhibits and footage of the wreckage! You’ll be able to see original artefacts and read stories about the first, second and third-class passengers on the ship. Plus, the crew and engineers on board, too.

    The exhibition features meticulously recreated interiors, like first-class cabins and the magnificent Grand Staircase, letting you experience the ship’s grandeur firsthand. And it makes for an Insta-worthy photo! Marvel at genuine artefacts such as delicate jewellery, clothing, a photographic collection and handwritten letters recovered from the wreckage.

    It’s an interactive exhibition that features large imagery, audio guides, and hands-on displays, making history come alive! Oh, and don’t miss the poignant Memorial Wall, commemorating the lives lost in this historic tragedy.

    You’ll also see some original artefacts from the Titanic’s sister ship – the Olympic. It was actually on a return trip from New York the day of the tragedy and received the distress call from the Titanic.

    Oh! And we hear you’ll even see some props from the 1997 blockbuster film, including a life jacket, one of the Heart of the Ocean necklaces, Captain Smith’s teacup, and a saucer!
