The 17,000 square-foot, ship-shaped structure &#8211; built half scale to Titanic&rsquo;s original size &#8211; towers more than 100 feet above its anchored position on Highway 76. A 90-minute, self-guided tour covers 20 galleries on two decks where over 400 priceless artifacts that once belonged to Titanic&rsquo;s passengers or crew are on display. None of the artifacts was retrieved from the ocean&rsquo;s floor. A creative mix of music from the period is accompanied by dramatic lighting, ambient sound, photographs, video and hands-on devices that give visitors the sensation of being an original passenger on Titanic&rsquo;s 1912 maiden voyage.<\/p>\n<p>For advance TITANIC tickets, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.titanicbranson.com\">www.titanicbranson.com<\/a> or call 417-334-9500 or 1-800-381-7670<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The World&#8217;s Largest Titanic Museum Attraction will launch a new family tradition as it hosts its first live New Year&#8217;s Eve Countdown with a twist on New York City&#8217;s famed ball drop in Times Square.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-602","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-shows-attractions-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/602","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/17"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=602"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/602\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=602"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=602"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bransoncourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=602"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
