The Titanic Exhibition runs at Birmingham's NEC until August 24th Birmingham NEC is hosting a new exhibition focusing on the story of the Titanic and its journey from the Harland and Wolff Shipyard in Belfast, to the fateful voyage and sinking. With artefacts from the wreckage and its passengers, this is an exhibition that takes visitors on an important journey of discovery about the ill-fated luxury liner. The Titanic legacy remains for everyone to see, but there are lots of stories here that you may not have heard as you read the first-hand accounts, study the findings, and learn everything about that night when the iceberg struck.
