Swell Sculpture Festival

The SWELL Sculpture Festival transforms Currumbin Beach into an outdoor gallery, showcasing 80+ contemporary sculptures from artists across Australia and beyond. Visitors can stroll the ocean walkway to explore the main exhibition or discover pop-up displays scattered throughout the city. The event offers more than visual art, featuring guided twilight walks, artist-led workshops, and live performances enriching the experience. Whether you’re an art lover or curious, the festival’s blend of creativity and coastal views makes for a refreshing day out. Beyond the sculptures, the festival’s cultural programming at SWELL Fringe and SWELL Smalls offers deeper insight into the scene. These elements invite engagement with the creative process and a variety of artistic expressions in a relaxed setting. The mix of interactive activities and diverse displays lets you tailor your visit to suit your interests. It’s a chance to appreciate art where the natural landscape and creative energy meet.
