Celebrating Maritime Trade at the Pageant
The Christmas Pageant, a cherished tradition since 1933, marks the start of the Christmas season in South Australia. Thousands of spectators of all ages gather along Adelaide’s streets to watch the event, which begins at 9:30am on Saturday, 8 November with the sound of the golden whistle.
FPH’s Exciting Float Reveal
“We are thrilled to finally unveil our FPH float,”
“Our float celebrates the vital role maritime trade plays in bringing festive joy, and presents, to South Australians each year.”
“Our float is particularly special—it's the first custom-built float to join the pageant in five years, proudly featuring a replica of one of our Pilot boats, alongside a crew of straddle carriers, containers, and FPH elves ticking off Christmas gifts.”
“The blue fabric ruffle below adds the perfect finishing touch, creating the illusion of the Pilot Boat gliding through water.”
