Produced by the Egyptian Ministry of Antiquities and IMG, and presented in London by Viking Cruises ‘Tutankhamun: Treasures of the Golden Pharaoh’ exhibition will unveil more than 150 original objects from the tomb, 60 of which are travelling out of Egypt for the first and final time before they return for permanent display within the Grand Egyptian Museum which is currently under construction.
The first time Tutankhamun arrived in London in the 1970s, record crowds of over 1.5 million people flocked to the British Museum.
