Burleigh Heads Winter Solstice Festival 2025

Burleigh Heads Winter Solstice Festival 2025

Celebrate the longest night of the year as the much-loved Burleigh Heads Winter Solstice Festival returns in 2025. This free, family-friendly event will transform James Street into a glowing winter wonderland filled with entertainment, food, and community spirit.

Visitors can enjoy live music across two themed stages, get creative with lantern-making, explore immersive glow zones, and take part in a lively drumming circle. Roaming performers- including fire twirlers and frosty characters – will add extra magic to the evening.

The festival also features a pop-up street bar serving seasonal drinks, alongside a range of delicious street eats from local vendors, showcasing the best of Burleigh’s food scene.

This is a perfect opportunity to support local businesses and enjoy a magical night out with friends and family. Attendees are encouraged to rug up, bring their loved ones, and help light up the night.

Parking is limited, so public transport or active travel options such as walking, riding or carpooling are recommended.
