Celebrate Fremantle’s Little Italy by the Sea Festival with a splash of creativity at the Shipwrecks Museum.
Bring the family along to enjoy a free kids’ Venetian mask decorating activity—perfect for capturing a colourful, photo-worthy moment.
The fun spills outside too! The Shipwrecks lawn becomes a magical bubble playground. Watch as giant bubbles drift through the air while children chase, pop, and create their own using oversized bubble wands.
Children can also enjoy free rides on Fireman Kevin's iconic 1960 Bedford Fire Engine, leaving from the Shipwrecks Museum forecourt. Families can climb aboard, feel the thrill of the siren, and enjoy the ride!
Plus, don’t miss our free highlights gallery tours—a perfect way to explore the treasures of Western Australia’s maritime history.
All activities are free, family-friendly, and part of Fremantle’s vibrant Little Italy by the Sea Festival.
