Find the best history events and make the most of your time next 30-days in Adelaide. From education to pets and more, we have the biggest event range and best discovery experience, there's something for everyone.
Please join us in Port Adelaide for a traditional Beat to Quarters and Ceremonial Sunset as we celebrate Navy’s 125th birthday. This naval ceremonial event will include uplifting music from the Royal Australian Navy Band South Australia and a six-person guard will fire a volley with blank cartridges. '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'.
Morning tea provided at Treasury 1860 prior to the tour. Meet at Walkerville Civic & Community Centre carpark. Bus departs no later than 9.40am.
Embark on an unforgettable voyage through Adelaide's nexus of power, culture and educational marvels, alongside opulent residences.

For 183 years, Brougham Gardens / Tantutittinga (Park 29) and Palmer Gardens / Pangki Pangki (Park 28) have had a special role in the history and social culture of this city. Along with the prominent floral clock, the rose gardens and other formal plantings, the built heritage that surrounds these two gardens is also impressive - including of course the tower of the Brougham Place Uniting Church. Find out about the role of Palmer Gardens and Brougham Gardens in Adelaide's history, their hidden secrets, and their continuing role in the city's life. Wear sturdy shoes for a walk of about 1.6km. Approximately 1.5 hours duration. Meet at the corner of O'Connell Street and Brougham Place (at the traffic lights at the top of the hill). Children and dogs most welcome :)
