Good vibrations hit Bundoora

A new twilight concert is making its way to Whittlesea, set to light up Bundoora as spring comes to a close with Bundoora Beats 2025 bringing live music, food and community spirit to Norris Bank Reserve on Saturday 29 November.

The free, family-friendly event invites locals to unwind under the gum trees with a lively line-up of Melbourne talent in JAZZPARTY, Jess Ribeiro, Charlie Needs Braces and Ramona Sky.

Adding to the festive atmosphere will be roving performers, kids’ activities and a tempting array of food stalls.

Music and foodie lovers are invited to spread out a picnic rug and bring the whole family for an evening of home-grown music in Melbourne’s diverse and creative musical lineup.

Families can look forward to plenty to keep the little ones entertained with face painting, badge-making and bubble shows, while the park becomes filled with rhythm and colour.

Headliners JAZZPARTY are renowned for their high-energy shows, blending 50s RnB, mambo, punk, ragtime, calypso and soul into a sound that gets everyone dancing.

The evening will be hosted by popular Melbourne emcee BennyGregs, known for his infectious energy and fancy flair.

Guests can bring their own picnic or sample local favourites from Pizza Forno X’Press, Twisted Temptations, Balkan Bites, Bundoora Rotary Sausage Sizzle and Cruising Creams Ice Cream.

City of Whittlesea Mayor Martin Taylor said Bundoora Beats is about celebrating creativity, connection and community.

“We’re proud to offer a free, family-friendly event that showcases amazing local and emerging artists while encouraging everyone to enjoy our beautiful parklands at twilight,” he said.

“Whether you come with family, friends or a picnic rug, Bundoora Beats promises a fantastic night out close to home.”
