A message from the Mayor about Bondi Festival

10.20am, Wednesday 23 June 2021

In light of the evolving COVID-19 situation in Sydney, Waverley Council has decided to delay the start of Bondi Festival to Tuesday 29 June.

Anyone who has purchased tickets for events or activities that were scheduled to be held this Friday 25 June through to Monday 28 June will be contacted directly by the Festival team to arrange a refund.

Council will continue to monitor all health advice regarding this latest COVID outbreak and will make further adjustments to our programming if necessary.

Bondi Festival has a COVID-safety plan in place including capacity limits in line with the current public health orders, QR code check-in and increased cleaning and hygiene measures.

COVID-safe events are currently permitted in Sydney and the decision to delay the start of the Festival was made by Council in the interests of the community, our performers and stakeholders.

We thank the community for continuing to support our local Arts industry and local businesses and will post any updates as they come to hand.

Bondi Festival is proudly presented by Waverley Council and the Bondi & District Chamber of Commerce.

Paula Masselos, Mayor of Waverley
