Please join us for a special evening of naval tradition as we celebrate 125 years of Australia’s Navy, set against the iconic backdrop of the Port Adelaide Lighthouse.

The event will feature a traditional Beat to Quarters and Ceremonial Sunset, accompanied by uplifting music from the Royal Australian Navy Band South Australia.

‘Beat to Quarters’ is a practice that dates back centuries to the age of sail when a ship’s drums were beaten in preparation for imminent battle. When full ceremonial is accorded for the lowering of colours – the Australian White Ensign – it is known as ‘Ceremonial Sunset’.

This is a free event. Tickets can be booked through the Eventbrite link.
