Waterfront Festival in Frankston
Shake off the work week and dance into the weekend. On Friday, listen to Sunshine & Disco Faith Choir, Amaru Tribe and Coco Michelle, and enjoy the headline act Sneaky Sound System.
Then on Saturday, watch colourful ducks take over the creek in the Rotary Duck Race, take part in the Frankston Swim Classic, explore market stalls and take part in fun activities. The music line-up includes Pierce Brothers, Queenie, Ausecuma Beats, Steph Strings, Lotte Gallagher, George & Noriko and Natasha Kate.
Throughout the festival, you can expect plenty of delicious treats from food trucks. Also new this year is The World Kitchen, which will feature plenty of tantalising cooking demos. There will also be a garden bar for you to unwind in.
The festival will conclude with a spectacular display of fireworks over the bay on Saturday night at 9:45pm. These fireworks will be launched from the end of Frankston Pier, so you’ll have a great view from anywhere on the beach, the waterfront precinct, the boardwalk and up to Oliver’s Hill.
