The world's most extensive and authentic exhibition about the famed (and doomed) Titanic sailed into Melbourne Museum in December 2023. Coming directly from a sold-out run in Paris, Titanic: The Artefact Exhibition transported visitors inside the famous ship more than a century after its demise via an intricate recreation of its hallowed grand staircase. It also featured more than 200 genuine artefacts retrieved from the site of the shipwreck in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean, many of them possessions of the passengers and crew onboard.
The nominees in the Best Museum Exhibition category are outstanding exhibitions that have impressed us across a number of key criteria, including visual impact, use of exhibition space, design, technical integration, accessibility, historical/cultural value and educational value.
The winner for each category will be announced on July 29, 2024. To see nominees for all categories, click here. For more information about the awards, click here.
