Every year, on this day, lighthouse enthusiasts and maritime history buffs around the world come together to celebrate International Lighthouse Weekend, which was established by the members of the Ayr Amateur Radio Group in Scotland. It aims to honour the rich history and functionality of these iconic beacons. The event also encourages lighthouse workers and owners to welcome people to view their lighthouses. These humongous structures function by utilising a combination of light, instruments, and precise engineering.
