Leading Northern Ireland tourist attraction Titanic Belfast is set for a landmark, ambitious gallery refresh.

Fit-out specialist Marcon has been awarded the gallery refresh programme to mark the attraction's 10th birthday. The firm will start on site this month with the transformed Titanic Experience opening to the public in Spring 2023.

Denise Kennedy, Titanic Belfast's Head of Operations said: "Dreaming big is in our DNA and just like the designers who created Titanic, we continually innovate how we tell her story and find new ways to capture the imagination. We will continue to push boundaries with immersive technology, original maritime heritage, and the authentic Titanic story, to deliver an enriched, emotive visitor experience. We are confident that the reimagined experience will amaze visitors and sustain Titanic Belfast as a world-class, 'must-see' global visitor attraction for years to come."
