Save the date for Waterfront Festival 2026!
What an incredible weekend we had in Frankston City at the 2025 Waterfront Festival. So much so that we're already planning our 2026 event!
Mark Friday 5 and Saturday 6 February 2026 in your calendars
In 2025, the Festival delivered another epic celebration, drawing over 40,000 festival-goers to experience an incredible mix of live music, vibrant food, thrilling activities, and non-stop entertainment for all ages. Headlined by Sneaky Sound System and Pierce Brothers (who absolutely killed it with a jam session featuring Steph Strings on Saturday night), the festival was packed with live art, fire twirling, mouthwatering food demos, a wild duck race, and so much more.
Of course, the grand finale was the much-anticipated awe-inspiring fireworks display, proudly presented by Betty's Burgers that lit up the sky on Saturday night that did not disappoint!
If you missed the event this year, catch the highlights in the video below and make sure you're there next year.
