Sandringham Street Festival 2024
Sandringham’s Street Festival is back in early November this year and it's going to be a goodie!
We invite anyone from around Auckland to come and experience a free-wheeling taste of famous Sandringham!
Try new foods, check out the amazing flavours coming from our shops, and enjoy different cultures and music in the Reserve.
There’ll be food trucks, new food (& some old favourites!), retail and trading stalls, amusement rides, and schools, community groups and bands performing on stage in the Sandringham Reserve.
Buskers, competitions, community groups, plenty of fun and games for kids, and heaps of delicious food and drinks for everyone!
Thanks heaps to the Albert-Eden Local Board for the funding to help make this event happen each year - you guys rock!
