Sydney Showboat Australia Day Dinner Cruise
Bring your Australia Day celebrations to a perfect close with the Showboat Australia Day Dinner Cruise that gives you the opportunity to relax in opulent surrounds after an eventful afternoon on the harbour! With drinks included, you can enjoy a gourmet three-course dinner, stroll the outer decks taking in the brilliant Sydney Harbour sights and shoreline, and settle down just in time for a spectacular cabaret show featuring an all-Australian cast of singers and dancers!
Australia has come a long way since the day Captain Arthur Phillip touched base at Sydney Cove with the first fleet of 11 convict ships from Great Britain. It was indeed a commendable achievement when all Australian States and Territories joined hands to celebrate ‘Australia Day’ on January 26.
It is a day that deserves to be commemorated and celebrated with activities that capture the spirit of ‘Australia’. Why not relive the paddlewheel era with the Sydney Showboat Australia Day dinner cruise and experience the excitement of churning paddlewheels and the rhythmic lapping of water against the hull of the vessel!

It was great. My wife and I together with my brother in law and his wife truly enjoyed the experience. The Captain positioned the craft in the right spot to watch an spectacular firework display. The show on board was a beautiful experience and the cast second to none. Congratulations on a wonderful night on the harbour.

Extremely pleased - had a fantastic night for Australia Day. Totally exceeded my expectations. Thank you
Annalisa
Great dinner cruise on Australia Day. My 2 guests and I did really appreciate the whole evening, even if my little daughter fell asleep (thank you very much for the additional chair on which she slept). The perfect thing was that a friendly member of the staff offered us a table near a window. As we are from New Caledonia, a French little island, where you don't see things like those you see on such a dinner cruise in Sydney Harbour. If I come again to Sydney for Australia Day, I will book again a dinner cruise on that charming paddlewheel boat.
Sandrine
