Come along to the Titanic Dock & Pump-House @ Northern Ireland Science Park and get a taste of what a future career in engineering & science might be like and meet some of the people involved today. Families can take part in challenging and fun quizzes with engineering twist, and enjoy some Street Theatre Performances.
Enjoy a complementary tour (11.30am – 1.00pm) which will give visitors an in-depth understanding of the story of the dock, visiting inside the Pump-House, and will walk along the full length of the dock to truly capture the size and scale of the Titanic, where they can also learn how this feat of Edwardian engineering worked, brought to life through state-of-the-art animation, and discover what it was like to work in the bottom of the Dry-Dock from our very own 1911 Apprentice! Hear the powerful pumps in the Edwardian Pump-House through our fully integrated sound and light show. Interpretative panels, archive film footage, and computer generated imagery tell the story of the people, the ships and the technology and engineering involved.
