NZAHT is proud to partner with UK Antarctic Heritage Trust on this tour of the UK, showcasing cutting-edge virtual reality experiences and bringing Antarctica’s remarkable historic sites to life using state-of-the-art immersive technology.
Scott’s Discovery Hut Virtual Reality Experience Touring the UK!
Antarctic virtual reality is coming to the UK in April and May!
NZAHT is partnering with sister heritage organisation UK Antarctic Heritage Trust to tour the UK with our fully immersive virtual reality experiences.
We will be showcasing our VR experience of Scott’s ‘Discovery’ hut, the first expedition base built on Antarctica’s Ross Island in 1902. UKAHT’s VR ‘A Frozen Night’ features Base E on Stonington Island, a pivotal dog sledging outpost established in 1946.
The teams will be visiting schools, Antarctic organisations, and public venues, giving participants the opportunity to step inside historic huts, come face to face with penguins, ride on a sledge towed by huskies, meet early explorers, and hear incredible tales of resilience, teamwork and innovation on the Ice.

- be inspired by the polar explorers’ stories.
- learn more about our conservation work and New Zealand’s long connection with Antarctica.
