Bondi Festival

Bondi Festival 2020 will not be going ahead in July as planned.

Note that some of the activities listed below are subject, and bound to now change

Where is the best place to experience the magic of winter and go ice skating? The beach of course! This winter Bondi Beach hosts the Bondi Festival, which is full of beachside and winter fun entertainment.

The Bondi Festival explodes with a celebration of winter right on the beach, showing that the majestic location is a venue for all seasons!

The main attraction of the festival is the beachside ice skating rink. Where else in the world can you ice skate in the sunshine or under the stars with the waves of the beach in the distance? Strap on a pair of skates and glide around the ice for a fun and exciting time. There will also be a fabulous show on the ice to delight spectators of all ages.

Another fantastic experience is the Bondi Vista, a 22-metre high Ferris wheel that gives visitors spectacular 360-degree views of the beach. During the festival, there a variety of coastal walks that showcase the beauty of the seaside during winter. The magnificent beaches, fresh sea air and the sound of waves have been known to inspire, relax and delight locals and visitors alike.

The Bondi Festival program transforms the beach into a winter playground by the sea. The event also includes a variety of other attractions that involves art, culture and history. During the festival, the District Chamber of Commerce hosts “On the Streets”, which promotes a series of music and art by local talents. Visitors are also welcome to take on the free history walks to learn more about this iconic area.

So for a different experience this winter, come down to Bondi for the Bondi Festival, where there is something for everyone to enjoy.
