Belfast Maritime Festival September 2025 - HMS Caroline Self-Guided Tours

Step back in time and explore the rich history of Belfast’s maritime heritage with a self-guided tour aboard First World War ship HMS Caroline, during the highly anticipated Belfast Maritime Festival on the 6-7 September 2025.

Belfast's Maritime Festival celebrates the rich naval history of the city and HMS Caroline is at the heart of it! The ship offers visitors an unparalleled opportunity to explore naval life from decades past and hear the incredible stories of the people who have served on board.

Each self-guided tour is enriched by interactive displays, touchscreens, and informative audio guides, ensuring you don’t miss a single detail. Walk the ship’s decks and explore the engine rooms and mess halls, where you can truly feel the legacy of the sailors who served aboard her. The self-guided format allows you to spend as much or as little time on each section of the ship, making it perfect for those with varying schedules.

HMS Caroline is open from 10am until 4.30pm on both days (last entry 3.30pm) giving you lots of time to tour the ship and step into the footsteps of the First World War sailors, before taking a leisurely walk down to the Titanic slipways where more Maritime Festival fun awaits!
