The nation’s first major celebration after New Year is almost here. January 26 marks the historic arrival of the First Fleet back in 1788, which set forth a chain of events that has laid the foundation for the development and story of this country.
This Australia Day, take the celebrations down to the harbour, be part of a countrywide tradition and join thousands of revellers embracing the Aussie way of life.
The most celebrated way to embrace the patriotic spirit is aboard the best of Australia Day cruises, which are crowd-free vantage points for some of the most iconic harbour activities. Aboard a lunch cruise, catch all the action from a cruise perspective –the Ferrython, Maritime Mayhem, Tall Ships Race, the 187th Australia Day Regatta and more.
When night falls, the harbour comes alive again for an exhilarating land and water concert – Australia Day Live.
A slew of famous Aussie acts take the stage at the Opera House forecourt for an uplifting live performance, which will also be in sync with a flotilla of yachts, jet skis, flyboarders, and pyrotechnics. Dinner cruises offer excellent views of the event from the waters, along with a sumptuous serving of world-class flavours.
