Bayside Spring Festival

Bayside Spring Festival 2025

Bayside Spring Festival

Since 1953, the Bayside Spring Festival has been a cherished community tradition, bringing people together with colour, music, and celebration by the bay. The festival begins with Manly Serenades at George Clayton Park, where audiences can enjoy a free evening of country music featuring Rachael Fahim, Midwest Molly, and Briana Dinsdale. Friends and families are encouraged to gather, soak up the atmosphere, and enjoy the lively sounds of spring.

The celebrations continue the following day with a packed program of live bands, family entertainment, kids’ activities, market stalls, and food trucks, creating a vibrant festival atmosphere for all ages. A highlight of the evening will be a dazzling fireworks display over the bay, offering the perfect finale to a weekend of music, community, and good times.
