Gather your loved ones and head to Bondi Beach for one of the Eastern Suburbs’ most cherished festive traditions — Carols by the Sea. This much-loved community celebration brings families together for an evening of music, connection, and classic Christmas cheer right by the water.
As the sun sets over Bondi, the park comes alive with performances from talented local musicians, joyful Christmas sing-alongs, and a relaxed atmosphere perfect for families. Kids will love the free face painting, while grown-ups can unwind to festive tunes with the sea breeze rolling in.
There’ll be a great selection of food available to enjoy, making it easy to settle in for a picnic-style evening. Just bring your picnic rug, your favourite people, and your festive spirit.
Carols by the Sea is a wonderful way to kick off the season — whether you live locally or are visiting Bondi for the evening, it’s a beautiful community moment that captures the joy of Christmas by the coast.
