Brickwrecks: Shipbuilders of the Stormy Seas

24th May - 1st June 2025

Plunge into May Half Term at The Historic Dockyard Chatham for an epic adventure on the high seas. Dive into the world of shipwrecks, pirates, and deep-sea adventures. Build your own adventure with interactive storytelling, get hands-on with shipbuilding, and navigate survival challenges in the ultimate shipwrecked adventure. Build a Shipwreck Story (24 – 28 May Only) - Step into the salty boots of a ship captain and sail through historic tales of famous shipwrecks like the PANDORA, TERROR and EREBUS.

Join forces with the master storyteller, Emily Hanna-Grazebook, to chart your own course. Discover the truth about pirates and decide the fate of your ship - was it a freak storm, a mythical kraken, or reckless navigation that sealed its doom? It’s your story to tell. Waves of Destruction (daily) - Are you ready to test your ship against the mightiest forces of nature? Use LEGO® bricks to engineer a ship tough enough to withstand our “Waves of Destruction” simulation tank.

Battle against fierce storms and giant waves to see if your creation can outlast the ocean’s wrath. Will your ship sail to victory or succumb to the deep? Survivor’s Logbook (daily) - After braving the high seas, capture your heroic exploits in your very own Survivor’s Logbook. Draw blueprints for your next unbeatable ship or pen your adventurous tale. What secrets did you uncover? What monsters did you encounter? What did you learn about pirates? Message in a Bottle (daily) - Make your mark as a Master Builder. Write a secret message or a daring tale and place it in the giant bottle sculpture. Join the ranks of adventurers whose stories add to the legend of the high seas.
