VALENCIA TITANIC EXHIBITION

Valencia’s exhibition on the infamous Titanic vessel has been extended yet again and will remain open until September 13.

‘Titanic: The Exhibition’ has been up and running in the city’s Kinépolis shopping centre, enjoying much success since arriving. With close to 200 original items and a thorough recap of how the massive ship set sail and eventually sank, there is more than enough to warrant a visit by anyone who has any sort of interest on this topic.

The exhibition had to close down during the state of alarm caused by the coronaviru­s, but it has since reopened and is once again welcoming visitors to its installati­ons.
