HMS Belfast

Families

Free event with general admission

HMS Belfast is full of amazing stories from a lifetime of epic adventures.

Meet IWM’s veterans and eyewitnesses of conflict to gain a unique insight into the impact of war on people’s lives. You'll hear an array of personal stories, recollections, and powerful memories from those who have experienced conflict first-hand. From Bridge to Bakery, veterans will share their memories of life at sea on board HMS Belfast. 

All our eyewitnesses and veterans are volunteers, who give their time to share these important true stories.

Questions at the ready!

Learn more about IWM eyewitnesses.

This is a drop-in activity recommended for families with children aged 7+.
