Narnia Weekend aboard the ‘Dawn Treader’ at National Maritime Museum in Cornwall

From 28-30 August, visitors will have the chance to climb aboard the Dawn Treader from the much loved Chronicles of Narnia stories. The ship is in fact the Matthew from Bristol, which will be transformed into the Dawn Treader, with its spectacular dragon’s head and tail. The ship is being used to promote the forth coming Hollywood blockbuster The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and the Maritime Museum is the only place on the south coast where the public will have the chance to climb on board.

Visitors can also make their own Reepicheep finger puppets, complete with golden earring; follow the trail around the Museum to find the hidden Narnian characters; and get a sneak-peek of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader movie before its release in December. Plus all children who dress-up as their favourite Narnian character will be entered into a fantastic prize draw for tickets to see the movie, courtesy of the Phoenix Cinema in Falmouth.

The Chronicles of Narnia weekend, at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall, runs from Saturday 28 August to Monday 30 August. For more information on opening times and admission prices visit www.nmmc.co.uk or call 01326 313388.

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader opens in 3D and 2D in cinemas nationwide 10 December.

  1. I want to go so badly! This is so good for the publicity for the movie because people are going to get a taste of the Dawn Treader before it hits theatres. This is also bringing more of the family aspect back to the series. I remember when I saw the first two movies in theaters I saw it with my family.

  2. um…there is a new trailer for dawn treder on the diary of a wimpy kid dvd. it doesnt show too many new clips but it is good. so checj it out!
