STEP ABOARD HMS WELLINGTON. STEP INTO HISTORY
Right in the heart of London, moored on the River Thames, lies a ship filled with untold stories and now, you’re invited to live them.
Introducing the HMS WELLINGTON WWII Immersive Experience, a powerful new way to discover her extraordinary wartime journey through state-of-the-art virtual reality.
For the first time, you can step into the boots of the crew and experience what life was like aboard this iconic vessel during the war.
In a fully immersive 30-minute experience, you’ll relive pivotal moments in history, from the high-stakes Allied evacuation of northern France during Operation Cycle to the tense and perilous missions escorting Atlantic convoys through U-boat-infested waters.
Blending hyper-realistic VR with interactive exploration of the ship itself, this isn’t just a history lesson, it’s a front-row seat to the action.
This is not a story told from a distance. It’s your chance to step into history, to see HMS WELLINGTON through the eyes of those who served aboard her.
EVERY SATURDAY, SUNDAY, AND MONDAY BETWEEN 10:00 AND 17:00, STARTING FROM SATURDAY 19 JULY AND ENDING ON SUNDAY 31 AUGUST
Blending hyper-realistic VR with real-world exploration of the ship itself isn’t just a history lesson, it’s a front-row seat to the action.
This is not a story told from a distance. It’s your chance to step into history, to see HMS WELLINGTON through the eyes of those who served aboard her.
WHETHER YOU'RE A HISTORY BUFF OR JUST CURIOUS, THE GUIDED TOUR ADDS A WHOLE NEW LAYER TO YOUR VISIT.
Our guides bring the ship to life, sharing first-hand accounts, original features, and surprising details about HMS WELLINGTON’s diplomatic duties in the South Pacific, her role in the Battle of the Atlantic, and her life after wartime as London’s only floating livery hall.
