Bring a torch, explore the darkened galleries - a fun night-time adventure for the whole family this school holidays!

Suffer a sailor’s life on-board, as we navigate the southern oceans with Cook and company. It’s going to be all hands-on deck as you learn how to behave in His Majesty’s Royal Navy – avoid the dreaded cat o’ nine tails and sample some questionable 19th-century naval food.

Have you got what it takes? Well, let’s batten down the hatches and join in the fun in this overboard quest.

This event sells out, so book your tickets now to avoid missing out.
