The Legend of the Titanic: The Ultimate Exhibition, located at Dock X in Canada Water, will close on February 1, 2026.
Originally launched as a limited run, the exhibition was extended in response to overwhelming public interest and has since welcomed more than 140,000 visitors in London alone.
Nearly half a million people have visited the exhibition across Europe, making it the largest Titanic exhibition ever staged.
The 3,000-square-metre experience takes visitors on a detailed journey through the Titanic’s story—beginning with its construction at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast and ending with its tragic maiden voyage in April 1912.
Blending historical research with digital storytelling, the exhibition features authentic artefacts, period clothing, immersive virtual reality experiences, and even a metaverse journey through the ship’s interiors.
Visitors begin the experience at Dockside Boarding, a recreation of Southampton Harbour, where they receive boarding passes and a virtual welcome from Captain Smith via an augmented reality app.
As guests walk through first- and third-class sections, they encounter artefacts and personal stories that vividly depict the social divide and opulence on board the Titanic.
One of the exhibition’s standout features is Until the Orchestra Fell Silent!, a virtual reality tribute to the ship’s musicians.
It is set to an original score by René Merkelbach and performed by the Budapest Symphonic Orchestra and Audiocult Choir.
Visitors can also step into a 360-degree projection room that brings to life the construction, voyage, and final hours of the Titanic.
Other highlights include interactive experiences, family-friendly activities, a dramatic photo opportunity on the ship’s bow, an AI-powered photo booth, and the chance to end the visit in the Café Parisien with a hot drink and cake.
The exhibition is produced by Madrid Artes Digitales and has won several international awards, including three Telly Awards and an Eventex Award.
Tickets start at £24 for adults and £16 for children, with free entry for those under the age of three.
The exhibition has been described as one of London’s “must-see cultural experiences.”
With its closing date fast approaching, those who wish to experience the exhibition should book tickets soon.
