This summer, Barwon Heads turns into an open-air playground as Wonderland Presents brings the Wonderland Summer Festival to town — a festive mix of live music, theatre, film, and family fun under the stars.
Set against the seaside backdrop, the festival delivers a stacked program across music, performance, and classic cinema. Expect big sing-along energy from tribute favourites like INXSIVE, BABBA and TUSK, alongside crowd-pleasers like Dr Hubble’s Bubble Show and the debut of Circus Wonderland WONDER, featuring acrobats and The Little Red Trapeze — a first for Barwon Heads.
Movie nights roll out classic feel-good favourites including Dirty Dancing, Mamma Mia, Footloose and The Greatest Showman, while the days bring silent disco tours, blues sessions, piano bars, and plenty for kids and families.
Between shows, wander the local makers market, grab a bite from seaside food trucks, sip something cold at the beach bar, or take in the view from the nostalgic Ferris wheel.
With free and ticketed events spread across the summer, Wonderland Summer Festival is easy, joyful holiday energy — the kind that keeps locals lingering and visitors planning their next night back.
