Following today’s announcement of stay-at-home orders for four Sydney local government areas, including Waverley, we have made the difficult decision to cancel Bondi Festival 2021. 

We are devastated to be cancelling our Festival on the day that it was due to come to life, but given the current situation, we know that this is the right call to make.  

If you have purchased tickets for events or activities during the Festival, the Festival team will contact you directly to arrange a refund. Please hold tight until we do so. 

We hope everyone stays safe and we know that we can weather this storm together. Our commitment to our artists, our audiences, our partners and our community remains the top of our hearts and minds. 

Thank you so much for your understanding and support as we navigate this tricky time. We send our love and gratitude to all those who have been involved in the Festival.  

Stay safe, and please support your artists and local businesses. We will see you again soon, we promise.
