Bondi Beach may be enjoying a cold snap this winter, but the reception is warm with the Winter Magic Festival sneaking up on us.
It's the second year for what is now an annual Winter Magic Festival. The promenade is getting lights, a tidy up and even the ice-skating rink is coming back. Then there's surf flicks, whale and dolphin watching, fashion events, food and drinks on offer and loads more. The fest will go from 3 months and Bondi Beach will be the key beach suburb showcased.
