ARTS FESTIVAL


For 10 days, SWELL Sculpture Festival turned the stretch from Currumbin Beach to Flat Rock, Tugun, into an expansive meeting place for people, art, and place. With over 80 contemporary sculptures by Australian and international artists, the 24th annual edition invited visitors to explore at their own pace from morning to night along the iconic oceanfront.

The 2026 program extended well beyond the beach exhibition with artist talks, guided walks, workshops, entertainment, and lots more.



Here are some of the scenes from the opening night, and some of the sculptures to see along the way.
