This vibrant, high-energy celebration brings the heart of Latin arts and culture to the eastern suburbs for one unforgettable summer day by the beach.

Perfect for families, friends and little ones, Bondi Latin Fiesta is a free, all-ages event filled with live music, dazzling dance performances, hands-on workshops, kids’ activities and mouth-watering Latin food. From samba beats to salsa moves and folkloric traditions from across Latin America, the Pavilion will be buzzing with music, movement and joy from midday through to sunset.

Throughout the day, families can enjoy a packed program of live performances on the main stage, with highlights including Samba Brazil, Peruvian and Mexican folkloric dance, DJs spinning Latin rhythms, and energetic live bands that will have everyone dancing along. There’s even a special Mayor’s welcome in the afternoon, adding to the festive community feel of the day.

For those keen to get involved, the Forecourt will host Latin dance workshops and interactive performances, giving kids and adults alike the chance to learn new moves and feel part of the fiesta. Younger children are especially well catered for, with creative craft workshops run by Waverley Library and colourful face painting available in the marquee area outside the Yalangang Room.

And of course, no fiesta is complete without food! A range of Latin food stalls will be serving up delicious flavours all day long, making it easy to turn your visit into a relaxed lunch or early dinner by the sea.

Whether you stay for an hour or spend the whole afternoon soaking up the atmosphere, Bondi Latin Fiesta is a wonderful way to introduce kids to different cultures while enjoying live entertainment in one of Sydney’s most loved locations.
