About

STUDIO 401 *(PTY) Ltd. proudly presents THE "TINTANIC" EXHIBITION - THE LARGEST TITANIC MODEL IN AFRICA - MADE OF "TIN".

Profile: "TINTANIC" is the largest Titanic model in Africa - made of "tin". She was created by local South African artist Gino Hart over a period of five years and ranks as the fourth largest Titanic model in the world at a staggering size of 8.7m *(28.5 ft) long. The model is unique in the sense that it has more than 4000+ rooms on 9 different internal deck levels, and the outer aluminium hull is held together by more 105 000 real pop rivets. The Exhibition features the "TINTANIC" as the centerpiece, surrounded by enlarged model sets which offers visitors the feeling of being on board the real ship, complete with faux potted palms, a fireplace and a grand piano. With more than 150 beauty enhanced historical photographs built into the large-scale panel sets, THE "TINTANIC" EXHIBITION now tells The South African Story with a focus on real South African Connections to the wreck. This exhibit can be found nowhere else in the world.

"A huge amount of effort goes into the tour, presented by facts dating back to the 18 hundreds. South Africans would be shocked that some of our heritage and footprint is embedded on the Titanic, which not many of us would know. Thank you Gino and what a grand scale of the Tintanic you have created, well done!!"

"What an amazing experience we had! I am still in awe of what we saw last night. It was truly unforgettable. The food and wine were also excellent and made for the perfect date night. We will definitely be back, and next time we'll be bringing our kids so they can experience it too. Highly recommended!"
