In 2012, we opened our doors with the aim of showing that the spirit that built RMS Titanic was still present today. Since then, our iconic building has become symbol of Northern Ireland and its giant spirit.
Now, more than ever, we need to support each other and so it feels only right that we throw our weight behind the
#ChaseTheRainbow campaign, lighting Titanic Belfast up each night with a colourful rainbow illumination as a display of positivity.
We hope this will raise people's spirits over the coming weeks and months and remind us all that there will be better days ahead.
We will also continue to light up blue on Thursdays, as part of the
#ClapForCarers campaign, to show our appreciation to the NHS and the vital work it is undertaking.
While we all do our bit and #StayAtHome, we thought we would bring a little bit of Titanic Belfast to you in the hopes of helping you beat the boredom during lockdown!
Virtual Tour
We know many of you are disappointed you cannot visit so, in partnership with Antenna International, we are delighted to be making our

Fun Activities and Learning Resources
Our Learning Team welcomes school groups to the building daily during term time, teaching them not only about RMS Titanic but also hosting a variety of workshops and seminars covering a broad range of curriculum areas, so we know just how challenging it can be to entertain (and educate!) the little ones outside the classroom!
To help with homeschooling, we've compiled a list of some of our free downloadable resources and activities designed to be interesting and fun for all the family - give them a go and let us know how you get on!
