May Half Term at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard

About

With a jam-packed schedule of activities, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is the place to be over the May half term.

You’ll never have the same visit twice when you spend the day with us. Will you come aboard the Nation’s flagship HMS Victory, push yourself to be the best at Action Stations: Commando Experience, discover the incredible secrets of the Mary Rose, or see what lies beneath with HMS Alliance? You can do all this and more at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard over Half Term with our Ultimate Explorer Ticket.

DIVE THE MARY ROSE 4D

Discover the untold story of the Mary Rose in our brand new experience, Dive the Mary Rose 4D. Be taken underwater and hear incredible stories of her life as King Henry VIII’s favourite ship before her untimely sinking, learn about the many failed attempts to find her as she lay hidden at the bottom of the seabed, and discover the cutting edge science that was used to bring her back to the surface.

This incredible, immersive, attraction uses multi-sensory features, meaning you can hear, smell, and feel as if you were actually there.

VICTORY LIVE: THE BIG REPAIR

See the cutting-edge science involved in ensuring the Nation’s flagship, HMS Victory, is preserved for future generations. You’ll be able to walk the scaffolding encasing her hull, where you will see the experts at work, and see HMS Victory in an entirely new way.

Not only can you see HMS Victory from up high but you can now walk underneath her using our new under hull walkway, built into her original dry dock, gibing you a unique angle of all 3600 tonnes of her!
