Titanic The Exhibition comes to The Shops at South Town
On the morning of April 15th, 1912, the Titanic sank in the icy waters of the North Atlantic and has since sparked intrigue for its story and those of the people on board. More than a century later, TITANIC: The Exhibition, produced by Imagine and Fever, will open for a limited time in Salt Lake City.
As the largest and most immersive touring Titanic experience, TITANIC: The Exhibition is a narrative journey that brings to light the fates of the passengers and crew aboard the sinking ship with stories, artifacts, and ship re-creations, and will open on Friday, October 17, 2025.
“Titanic has been a part of my life for decades, ever since I had the incredible opportunity to dive to the wreck site. Since then, I’ve helped share the Titanic’s remarkable tale across countless presentations and exhibitions, always inspired by the enduring power of the ship and the stories of those who sailed on her,” said Tom Zaller, President and CEO of Imagine. “I am thrilled to be bringing the wonder of the Titanic back to Utah after more than 20 years. Titanic resonates because it is more than a ship; it’s a story about dreams, loss, and the human spirit. With this exhibition, people are transported back in time in a way that brings the story to life and carries forward the legacy of the Titanic."
TITANIC: The Exhibition is an interactive exhibition that tells the chronological and dramatic tale of the design, creation, launch, maiden voyage and tragedy of the largest and most luxurious ship in the world at that time. Guests will admire over 350 artifacts from Titanic and other period ships from the White Star Line including China, menus, personal items and more, as well as props and costumes from the beloved James Cameron 1997 blockbuster film Titanic. Set inside fully immersive re-creations of the ship's interior, the artifacts help navigate guests through Titanic's timeline from sinking to underwater discovery.
Once “aboard,” visitors will receive a boarding pass corresponding with a passenger on the ship – allowing each guest to follow an individual passenger story as they explore the first, second, and third class galleries with their corresponding artifacts. The stories of love and loss culminate in the final galleries, showcasing personal effects and individual anecdotes surrounding a tribute wall where each passenger’s fate is revealed.
Music from the era plays throughout the exhibit as patrons examine incredibly detailed recreations of the ship's interiors including a two-story full-scale recreation of the ship’s famous Grand Staircase, the first class hallway and millionaires suite, the third class hallway and cabin, the boiler room, and the ship exterior promenade deck complete with a starry night sky.
The Discovery Gallery, dedicated to the discovery and research of the Titanic’s wreckage site, features a raised glass floor; simulating the impression of walking along the ocean floor. Broken china in the sand allows visitors to experience some of what discovery teams saw during dives to the Titanic site.
The exhibition also includes a striking and informative film that provides an in-depth look at the most recent forensic research related to the collision, breakup, and sinking of the Titanic and award-winning underwater photography of the Titanic lines the walls of the Discovery Gallery in a stunning display of the ship’s current state on the seafloor.
Guests may also opt in to the companion audio guide, providing a rich companion narrative with additional in depth stories of passengers, crew, and the events leading up to and following Titanic’s fateful sinking in April 1912.
“TITANIC: The Exhibition is designed to bring people closer to the real experiences of those who lived this extraordinary moment in history,” said Mark Lach, Creative Producer of the exhibition. “Being part of the last team to dive to the Titanic wreck site to recover artifacts and having worked with Titanic’s legacy so closely over the years, I’ve seen firsthand how powerfully these stories and artifacts connect us to the past. They resonate so deeply because it reminds us that behind the legend of the ship are real people, their stories, and their journeys. With detailed recreations and powerful storytelling, this exhibition offers guests the chance to experience both the wonder of the Titanic and the emotion of its story in a way that feels immediate and real.”
