Hop aboard the legendary Tassie tall ship, Lady Nelson, for a magical and hauntingly beautiful two-hour evening sail as we fully embrace the spirit of Dark Mofo.

Prepare for a symphony of "Oohs" and "Aahs" as our ship transforms into a dazzling RED marvel, and glides across Hobart's scenic harbour with the spectacle of the festival lights glowing as our backdrop!
Get hands-on by hauling a line, steering the ship, or simply lounging and soaking in the Tall Ship experience.

Cosy up with heartwarming soups and tasty sips, or bring your ownfeast and drinks!

Enjoy lively performances from local talents LCM Jazz Band (13th) & Clover Hitch (20th), guaranteed to get you clapping and swaying!
