HMS Belfast is currently closed
HMS Belfast was closed in March 2020 as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Due to the restrictions of social distancing, we are unable to reopen safely at the current time.
We have decided to use the opportunity to invest in HMS Belfast and realise some of our much needed transformation plans on board. We anticipate that we will reopen with an enhanced public offer and an improved infrastructure in Summer 2021.
