The perfect activity for active and energetic kids!
This specially designed Bell Tower Experience Tour has been created with young Bell Chimers in mind.
THIS TICKET INCLUDES GENERAL ENTRY
This tour is suited for children aged 5-11 years old. A parent or guardian must accompany children on this tour*.
With young and aspiring Bell Chimers in mind, this tour is only 15 minutes long and focuses on active engagement. Kids will get a chance to chime a bell without having to sit still during the regular history lesson.
You can even grab an activity sheet and pencils to bring in the Ringing Chamber for extra engagement while waiting for a turn on the bell.
For older kids, we recommend joining on to the original Bell Tower Experience to have more time allotted to the behind the scenes of the bells’ stories.
*This tour is only for the chiming of 5-11 years. If a parent or guardian would like to participate in the Chiming experience too, we highly recommend booking on the original Bell Tower Experience.

Operation information
The Bell Tower Tours
The towering glass spire of the Bell Tower, one of the largest musical instruments in the world, fills Perth with its chimes. The bells are the original (circa fourteenth century) bells of St. Martin-in-the-Fields Church, the parish church of Buckingham Palace in Trafalgar Square, London.
It’s one of the few places on Earth where interactive demonstrations allow visitors to see the ancient art of bell ringing in action and have a go at ringing the bells.
In addition to the St. Martin bells, the Bell Tower installed the ANZAC Bell. It’s the largest bell of its kind ever made in Australia and was cast in Perth. The ANZAC Bell is expected to last over 500 years and weighs 6,500 kilograms.
The interpretive displays share some impressive insights into the history of the bells and bell ringing. The open-air observation deck is perched on the sixth floor and boasts stunning views of the Swan River and the City.
This award-winning attraction is located in Barrack Square – where the City meets the Swan River and is just a five-minute stroll from the city centre.
