About Discovery Times Square Museum (Vikings)
Discovery Times Square Museum (Vikings) sits in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, at 226 West 44th Street, New York, NY 10036. This large-scale traveling exhibition space operated as a dynamic home for immersive shows and historically themed experiences, including the Vikings Exhibition (which ran through September 5, 2016). Although the DTS venue closed in 2016, the space remains a notable part of Times Square's exhibition history, and visitors today often explore the surrounding area for related experiences, dining, and convenient travel options.
As you plan your visit, think of Discovery Times Square Museum as a reference point for how Times Square hosts major touring exhibits: a spacious environment with flexible, non-fixed seating layouts that accommodate wide-ranging displays across roughly 60,000 square feet of exhibit space. If you’re researching past exhibitions like Titanic: The Artifact Exhibition or Star Wars costumes, you’ll appreciate the scale and energy that Times Square venues bring to immersive experiences.
