JOIN OUR MARKETS
In 2025, the Ocean Lovers Festival drew over 45,000 visitors to Bondi, with a strong mix of families, Millennials, youth and eco-conscious consumers. Alongside the crowds, our digital presence delivered over 100,000 in organic Instagram reach, 172,000 across all social platforms, and close to 40,000 website views during the festival month alone. This combined on-the-ground and online visibility makes the Festival a unique platform for brands seeking engaged, values-aligned buyers.
Our Ethos
Ocean Lovers Markets will be curated to showcase innovative products and projects that don’t cost the earth and are designed to specifically help protect or enhance our ocean environment and wildlife.
A particular focus is on products that recycle, reuse or reduce plastic waste getting into our oceans. Our curation process will ensure minimal duplication of product offers and the ability to stand-out to our ocean loving crowd.
Our ‘Sunshine Stage’ will be the centrepiece of the festival hub with all day entertainment.
Promotion
Your inclusion will ensure a social media post on our Facebook and Instagram to our Ocean Lovers audience and inclusion in our online Festival Program.
Ocean Lovers Markets will be promoted widely through publicity, EDM’s, posters and signage. Other marketing avenues include Waverley Council, Destination NSW, Tourism Australia and through our many festival partners and supporters.
