Bondi Firelight Returns: Bonfires, Music and Marshmallows by the Sea

March 24, 2026

There’s something about Bondi in the cooler months that just hits differently. The crowds thin out, the air gets crisp, and as the sun drops behind the ocean, the beach takes on a slower, more relaxed rhythm. It’s in this golden window between day and night that Bondi Firelight comes to life — and it’s easily one of the most атмосферic events in Sydney’s east. This April, Waverley Council is bringing the beloved event back to the southern end of Bondi Beach, inviting locals to gather for an evening of firelight, music and simple, feel-good moments by the sea.

An Endless Summer Surprise on the Bondi to Bronte Walk

March 2, 2026

As an Eastern Suburbs local, the Bondi to Bronte coastal walk is practically part of my DNA. It’s where I clear my head, find creative inspiration, and occasionally bump into familiar faces. But last Saturday, what unfolded was something altogether unexpected.
