Titanic ‘In Focus’ Exhibition Opens Thursday at Liverpool’s Former White Star HQ

Curators cast it as a homecoming, returning wreck‑recovered artefacts to the very rooms where the liner was planned.

Overview

  • The three‑month run is scheduled for January 8 to March 10, 2026, with tickets on sale now through the White Star Line Hotel website.
  • The show occupies the Grade II* listed 30 James Street building, where officials once read survivor and casualty lists to crowds in 1912.
  • Headline objects include the largest surviving section of the Aft Grand Staircase from the wreck site nearly two miles beneath the Atlantic.
  • Visitors will see a rare intact wooden deck chair recovered in the days after the sinking, a fragment of Wallace Hartley’s sheet music, and original letters and telegraphs.
  • Organisers detail an immersive timeline from design and construction through the sinking and the 1985 rediscovery, with a press launch set for January 7 at 6:30pm.
