A Down at Dock 2 event for children over 5 years.

Join us at Dock 2, next to the 1864 clipper ship City of Adelaide, to construct your own lantern - based on the traditional brass clipper ship lanterns of old.

Cut, glue and punch the paper and cardboard lantern base and lid before attaching them to a plastic Bickford's bottle. Connect battery cables to an amber light-emitting-diode (LED), then insert this assembly into the Bickford's bottle to complete your lantern. Switch ON, and the LED will glimmer like a burning candle - try it out in our darkened display container.

We have morning and afternoon sessions: 11am - 12pm, and 1:00pm - 2:00pm.

Each ticket holder will receive a $5 discount voucher for an adult to tour the clipper (children tour free of charge). This voucher can be used on the day, or at any time in the future.

See you there!
