Military Museum Open Day

The East Point Military Museum will not be holding an open day in 2011.


The 2010 Open Day

Official procedings to remember those who served start at 9am with a prayer, an Ode and a minutes silence.

Entry to the museum is free on this annual event, with entertainment supplied by the Australian Army Band and US Airforce Band and Darwin Pipes and Drums.

The kids are not forgotten- a bouncy castle, face painting and other games will keep them busy.

Visitors inspect a Gun Turrent on site.

Open from 8.30 am to 5pm.

This is an opportunity to learn what really happened in Darwin during the war. The real news was heavily censored in those times and many Australians are still not aware of the full extent of military operations here.
