HMS Wellington, a historic WWII ship, is set to reopen to the public on July 19, 2025, after restoration efforts. Visitors can look forward to a unique virtual reality experience showcasing the ship's crucial role in maintaining supply lines during the Battle of the Atlantic. Ticket prices start at £20 for the VR experience and £32 for the combination of VR and guided tours. The reopening is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, reflecting an effort to honor the narratives of merchant seafarers and educate future generations about maritime history.
"A visit to HMS Wellington gives people a chance to step into our rich maritime history. Our new immersive VR experience is designed to engage visitors with HMS WELLINGTON's extraordinary wartime stories."
"The immersive experience and the re-opening of HMS WELLINGTON this summer has been made possible with support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund."
