Having captivated audiences worldwide with previous iterations, including a notable tour across America and the UK, “Titanic. The Human Story” finally made its Australian debut in Brisbane this year, and has had an incredibly successful run. The exhibition offers you the chance to discover the true narrative behind the Titanic through personal belongings, archival photographs, and authentic relics meticulously curated for this exhibition. Tickets for this landmark event at Uptown are still on sale, but the doors are closing on October 27th, so make sure to secure your spot for this historical exploration before it ends!
While James Cameron’s 1997 film adaptation may have shaped our perception of the Titanic, this new exhibition offers a deeper, more authentic encounter with the ship’s legacy. The touching stories and personal artefacts will help you understand the lost world of the transatlantic and provide a poignant glimpse into history.
During your visit you will be able to walk in the passenger’s footsteps as you move through life-size, detailed recreations of the ship’s interior, allowing you to experience what it was really like on board. You’ll also be able to hear passenger testimonies through audio guides, describing events as they happened on that fateful day. All of the over 200 artefacts on display have been carefully selected by historian and Titanic expert Claes-Göran Wetterholm, one of the world’s greatest authorities on the history of the Titanic.
Suitable for visitors of all ages, “Titanic. The Human Story” invites you to uncover the truths, myths, and enduring allure of the “unsinkable” ship. This is a unique opportunity to understand what really happened on April 14 1912, reminisce on the heroic deeds performed and commemorate the lives that were lost. Purchase your tickets now and then head over to Uptown to board this immersive exhibition.
