Bastille Festival 2024

This winter, the famous Bastille Festival is returning to Circular Quay for a fabulously French affair, s'il vous plaît!

The French-inspired fiesta showcases the region's best food, wine, and art in the heart of Sydney for four decadent days and nights over the Bastille Day weekend.

Bastille Festival 2024

The Sydney Bastille Festival is celebrating its 11th annual event with its biggest program ever from 11 to 14 July 2024.

Imagine diving fork-first into the crème de la crème of French cuisine – we're talking escargot, crepes that’ll make your heart flip, and raclette so gooey it’s practically a hug in food form. All while washing it down with the finest French vinos. And because Sydney's culinary scene is nothing short of revolutionary, expect some jaw-dropping collabs with the city's most cutting-edge chefs and food innovators, serving up dishes that'll have you saying "encore" before you've even finished.
 

But hold onto your hats, because Bastille Festival Sydney is more than just a feast for your belly. It's a full-blown French revolution of arts and culture. Picture this: 50 performances across multiple stages, live bands that'll make you wanna dance till you drop, DJs, dance and street performances that'll transport you straight to the heart of Paris, not to mention live drawing and fire artists that'll light up the night. It's the artistic chaos of French culture, all wrapped up in one spectacular event.

And the best part? You don't need a ticket to France to join in. The Bastille Festival is throwing open its doors for free, so you can immerse yourself in France's Freedom Day celebrations without spending a cent on airfare. Viva la France!
