Twelve artists have spent six weeks painting the walls of the old ferry terminal, creating a mural more than 200 metres long that tells the story of the harbour.
The work, paid for by local businesses, was unveiled on Saturday with music and a parade of boats.
The event is supported by the city arts fund and by several local businesses, which have sponsored free places for schools.
Visitors are advised to arrive early, as last year many events were full well before the start.
