Crows Nest Fest 2026

The countdown is on to one of the Lower North Shore’s biggest community days, with Crows Nest Fest 2026 set to take over the village on Sunday 18 October 2026, from 10am to 5pm.

For one action-packed day, the streets, laneways, parks and public spaces of Crows Nest will be transformed into a vibrant celebration of food, music, art, culture, community and local business.

With 200+ market stalls, four entertainment stages, gourmet food and food trucks, live music, family activities, live art, roving performers and plenty of surprises, there will be something happening around every corner.

Free to attend and designed for all ages, Crows Nest Fest 2026 (CNF26) invites locals and visitors from across Sydney to come together, explore the village and experience the energy and personality of Crows Nest.

Crows Nest Fest is much more than a market day. It is a celebration of the people, creativity, food, culture, collaboration and local businesses that give the neighbourhood its distinctive character.

Visitors can wander through 200+ stalls spread across the village, discovering gourmet food and specialty produce, fashion, jewellery, art, gifts, lifestyle products and sustainable finds.

Beyond the Festival stalls, Crows Nest’s much-loved restaurants, cafés, bars, retailers and local businesses will be part of the day, giving visitors even more reasons to stop, explore and discover a new favourite.
