The Festival of the Winds returns to Bondi Beach on Sunday 13 September 2026, bringing spectacular kites, live entertainment, workshops, rides, animals, food and free family fun to the Eastern Suburbs. It runs from 11am to 4pm with activities spread across Bondi Park and Bondi Pavilion.
Over 40,000 people are expected on the day, so leave the car at home. Additional bus services run between Bondi Junction and Bondi Beach, and extra trains run between Central and Bondi Junction from 10am. Arrive early, find your patch of grass, and look up.
From giant show kites that dominate the horizon to intricate handmade creations and high-flying stunt kites, there is genuinely something happening at every level, in the sky and on the ground.
