Celebrate the longest night of the year as the much-loved Burleigh Heads Winter Solstice Festival returns. 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.
