Geelong Wonder Children's Festival 2026

The Geelong Wonder Children's Festival returns from 14-24 September 2026, bringing creativity, curiosity and plenty of school-holiday magic to the heart of Geelong.

Big Wonder Weekend

The festivities step up a gear with the Big Wonder Weekend on 19 and 20 September, launching the school holidays with two action-packed days of family entertainment.

Geelong Arts Centre, the Cultural Precinct and Little Malop Street will come alive with big-name ticketed performances, interactive installations, creative workshops and free activities.

In 2026, the festival will also expand into more venues across central Geelong, giving families even more opportunities to play, create, explore and connect.

Free & ticketed family fun across Geelong Arts Centre and beyond
