Titanic: The Exhibition will host a Saint Patrick’s Day celebration on Monday, March 17, in honor of the more than 15,000 Irish workers who built the Titanic in Belfast, Ireland. This special event will immerse guests in the rich Irish heritage connected to Titanic through a full day of programming. Events include live Irish music, dance performances, whiskey tastings, and a informative presentation on the ship’s construction and its Irish workforce.
“The story of Titanic is deeply intertwined with Ireland,” said Tom Zaller, President & CEO of Imagine. “From the skilled laborers in Belfast who built the ship to the many Irish immigrants who embarked on Titanic’s maiden voyage in search of a better life, their legacy is an integral part of this exhibition. We are thrilled to honor that history with this special event.”
