Spirit of Tasmania is celebrating the first days of spring with
an invitation only Open Day this weekend.
It is the first time since 2002 that Spirit of Tasmania has
opened its gangway. This weekend, Saturday, 5 September from 10am -
3pm and Sunday, 6 September from 10am - 4pm, almost 9000 people
will attend the two day Open Day event.
There will be 50 exhibitors from Tasmania in the Station Pier
terminal, bringing a selection of Tasmania's best! The exhibitors
will include travel operators who can take you four-wheel driving,
show you where to catch the best fish, help you locate a cosy cabin
just for two on the Cradle Coast and inform you on cruising the
Tamar River. Where one journey ends, another is awaiting just for
you!
Guests will then be able to step aboard and take a self guided
tour of the ship. Relax into one of the Ocean View Recliner's, peer
out of a Deluxe Cabin porthole and test the 3-4 berth cabins for
size and comfort. The array of facilities on board include bars,
restaurants, shops, cinema, games room and more.
Spirit of Tasmania introduces for the very first time live
entertainment acts during the night spring sailing season; boasting
Elvis and his showgirls, salsa performers and instructors and Fast
Eddy's cooking display as well as Coxy and his show band! A sample
of on board entertainment will also be performing during the Open
Day, including Elvis and salsa dancers.
Spirit of Tasmania encourages you to experience something
different, and ignite your spirit this spring with a journey to
remember.
