Your favourite beachside festival COOGEE LIVE is back - Sat 7 & Sun 8 March, 2026 - and it has had *quite* the glow up, infact we’ve completely reimagined it!

We’ve designed the 2026 festival across three closely connected zones (with the Ocean Kitchen Garden moving down next to Coogee Beach Reserve), brought in a Big Top, a kids zone, a beer garden and so, so much more. This is Fringe-quality programming with a coastal twist. Circus and cabaret. Roving dinosaurs. Bubble shows. A rave for the whole family. Jetty DJ sets at sunset. And a beer garden big enough to kick back in between shows.

𝗖𝗢𝗢𝗚𝗘𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗘 is home to both Coogee Cove (hello Big Top, Beer Garden, and jaw-dropping art installations) and Kids Cove, where the little ones can lose themselves in roving performers and immersive experiences designed just for them.

𝗢𝗖𝗘𝗔𝗡 𝗞𝗜𝗧𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗡 𝗚𝗔𝗥𝗗𝗘𝗡 is now right next to Coogee Beach Reserve. Award-winning chefs. Intimate cooking demos. Elevated food truck dining. Gourmet vendors and flavours you'll be thinking about for weeks…

𝗖𝗢𝗢𝗚𝗘𝗘 𝗕𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛 The Sunset Stage brings you headline acts as the sun goes down, and a kite festival painting the sky with colour. Everything's connected. Session times are staggered so you don't miss a thing. And it's all designed so you can genuinely soak it in - catch a show, grab a bite, take a dip in the ocean, settle into the beer garden, and do it all over again…

We felt like we really turned it up a notch this year and moments like this feel like the icing on the cake. Coogee Live has always been about bringing the community together, celebrating local and national talent, incredible art, great food, and the beautiful coastline we’re so lucky to call home.

This little nod belongs to everyone who attended, volunteered, performed and supported the event.
