The Semaphore Summer Carnival held during the Christmas School Holidays is a place to come and enjoy some fun in the sun by the seaside.
There are thrill rides, dodgem cars, bungee trampolines, kid's rides and bounces, sideshow games, and temporary tattoos.

Foundation stone 13 May 1899 by Mrs S J Way, opened 17 Aug 1899 on land donated by the Rev J C Kirby, hall 1913, sold 1973, closed when congregation moved to new church West Lakes, used by Assemblies of God, sold 1994, now private.
“The Rev. J. C. Kirby said that sixteen years ago a number of Congregationalists came to reside at the Semaphore, and it vas found necessary to establish a Sunday school, and the Rechabite Hall was selected for the purpose. . . It was now felt necessary that they should have a building of their own, so that other forms of Christian work might be carried on.” [Register 15 May 1899]
“a young men's hall in connection with the Semaphore Congregational Church . . . The new structure will adjoin the Jagoe Street Hall (where the church services are held) on the north side. Mr. J. H. Cranna is the architect, and Mr. W. F. Klopp the contractor. The money for the building of the hall is being raised by the Young Men's Society, and it is hoped that- sufficient funds may be forthcoming to equip the building for a clubroom, that it may become a social meeting place for men.” [Daily Herald 13 May 1913]
