Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff opens its doors
3 Aug 2012
An interactive exhibition, which invites visitors to star in their very own Doctor Who adventure via a TARDIS flight, has opened in a purpose-built venue designed by Holder Mathias Architects at Port Teigr, Cardiff Bay.
Following its successful run in Olympia in London, the Doctor Who Experience is located next to the BBC Wales Roath Lock studios, also completed by the practice, where the BBC Wales time-travelling series is shot.
The Doctor Who Experience includes a new water taxi pier, featuring a Doctor Who TARDIS. It is adjacent to the World of Boats and the new BBC Wales Roath Lock Studios, where Doctor Who is filmed, which was the first industrial building in the UK to achieve a BREEAM “outstanding” rating, both by Holder Mathias.
