"We've already had an exhibition on Tutankhamun come to town and now history buffs have another ancient civilisation to experience with The Last Days of Pompeii: The Immersive Exhibition. The exhibition is making its UK debut at Immerse LDN in November (having welcomed 750,000 visitors in cities like Berlin, Madrid and Beijing) and is promising to take visitors on a journey through the ancient city through the use of cutting-edge tech, interactive experiences and original artefacts."
"The exhibition will showcase daily life in the city with recreations of Roman architecture and displays of artefacts and replicas, including bronze utensils and marble sculptures, before moving onto the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD that destroyed the city. There'll be casts of Pompeii's citizens shown in the way they were found after being preserved by calcified ash; eight-metre high projections featuring the sights and sounds of Pompeii;"
The Last Days of Pompeii: The Immersive Exhibition opens at Immerse LDN on 14 November 2025 at Excel, Royal Victoria Dock, London. The experience recreates daily Roman life with reconstructed architecture, artefacts and replicas such as bronze utensils and marble sculptures. The exhibition presents the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD with casts of citizens preserved by calcified ash and eight-metre projections conveying the city's sights and sounds.
