Titanic. The Exhibition Arrives in Metro DC this October

WASHINGTON DC (AUGUST 17, 2023) - On the fateful morning of April 15th, 1912, the Titanic sank in the icy waters of the North Atlantic and claimed the lives of 1,496 people. More than a century after the 1912 tragedy, Titanic. The Exhibition – created by award-winning exhibitions creator and producer Musealia – arrives in the metropolitan DC area this fall after successful runs in New York City and London. Tickets are on sale today. 

The content of the exhibition is the result of years of work and research led by the Musealia team, the Spanish company that created some of the most successful historical exhibitions in recent years in Europe and the USA, and the prestigious Swedish historian and author Claes-Göran Wetterholm, one of the world's foremost experts on the Titanic.

The Exhibition, a narrative journey bringing to light the fates of the passengers and crew aboard the sinking ship, will open in October at National Harbor, on the banks of the Potomac River, just minutes from the nation’s capital. Starting from today, tickets are available for purchase through Fever’s marketplace here with pricing starting at $29.50 for adults and $20.50 for children.

Bringing with it a selection of personal artifacts never-before-seen in the DMV that tell touching stories of the ship's passengers and crew, Titanic. The Exhibition will display around 200 objects from both passengers and crew members, retelling a very human side to the story of the ship’s sinking. Visitors will be able to experience life-size recreations of some of the ship’s interiors and learn more about the history of the ship through dynamic audio guides, which also feature music and sound effects.

Far more than just a display of historic items, Titanic. The Exhibition is a unique narrative experience, a tale of the people aboard history’s most legendary ship on its maiden and final journey. The experience encourages its guests to travel back in time through photographs, handwritten letters, wayward keepsakes, and other personal belongings telling countless stories about the lives and fates of those on board.

Boasting original objects never-before-seen in the DMV, visitors will feel connected to the Titanic’s passengers, as they listen to their testimonies, discover their stories by walking in their footsteps and explore detailed recreations of the ship’s interior.
