Vikings: The Immersive Experience is landing at Dock X this March

This March, London welcomes a powerful new cultural attraction -Vikings: The Immersive Experience landing at Dock X. Far more than a battle-led retelling, this ambitious exhibition offers an emotional and educational journey into the heart of Viking society, centred on one of its most influential dynasties. Visitors are invited to step inside the world of King Ragnar Lodbrok, Queen Kraka (Aslaug) and their legendary sons, including Ivar the Boneless and Bjorn Ironside.

Blending large-scale physical sets with cutting-edge technology, the experience unfolds across richly detailed environments designed to fully immerse guests in the Viking age. Highlights include a dramatic forest-style discovery space and a towering mythological Yggdrasil, also known as the World Tree, brought to life through light, sound and projection. High-resolution video mapping, virtual reality and a sweeping cinematic score combine to transport visitors back to 9th-century Scandinavia and the lands the Vikings once explored and conquered.

A defining feature of the exhibition is its focus on Queen Kraka, whose wisdom, foresight and spiritual power are often overshadowed in popular history. Through storytelling and immersive visuals, visitors follow her journey from hidden royal lineage to revered völva, revealing the pivotal role she played in shaping one of the most feared families of the North.

The experience culminates in a striking 360-degree cinematic presentation set around a real Viking longship, guiding audiences through a tale of love, fate, vengeance and legacy. Accessible, multi-sensory and thoughtfully designed, Vikings: The Immersive Experience will appeal to history lovers, families, school groups and fans of Vikings alike.

Tickets start from £19 for children and £23 for adults, with concessions and VIP options available. Public opening on 13^th March 2026.

Address: Dock X, Unit 1 Canada Water, Surrey Quays Rd, London, SE16 2XU

Veuve Clicquot, the eminent champagne house, presents an exclusive four-month installation hosted by Selfridges from the 4th October 2021 until the end of January 2022. Guests will be transported back in time in ‘Le Tram’, a retro-chic installation that takes over 50 square metres of bar and retail space on the ground floor of the iconic Selfridges London store. This year’s iteration of the bottle is a Veuve Clicquot personalised bottle – The Veuve Clicquot Tape.

Over Christmas, ‘Le Tram’ will be home to an intimate 10-seated bar offering a unique menu of Veuve Clicquot champagne and curated cocktails including a Pear and Ginger Mule, Belvedere Organic Infusion Blackberry and Lemongrass vodka and Eminente Rum. In keeping with the cassette tape and retro theme, through retro speakers drinkers will be able to play tunes of their choice, sharing moments of festive happiness. After a strange year for us all, Christmas this year has new meaning focusing on time for connection, optimism and spending it with loved ones. Fizz the season!

For those wishing to send a more personal Christmas gift, an individual message, inspired by song lyrics, can be added to a personalised label (that’s in the shape of an authentic mixtape label!) to evoke a shared memory, or simply let someone special know how much you care. Browse from among 300 gifting messages or type your own on a retro typewriter. You can keep the box at home to display long after the bottle is enjoyed!

Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label cuvée bottle at Le Tram bar, £90 | The Clicquot Personalised Tape, £59.99

Opening times: 10:00am – 09:00pm (Monday to Saturday) | 11:30am – 06:00pm (Sunday)
