Sandringham Street Festival 2025

Brian from Mount Roskill

Sandringham’s Street Festival is back in early November this year and it's going to be a huge!
We invite anyone from around Auckland to come and experience a free-wheeling taste of famous Sandringham! Try new foods, check out the amazing flavours coming from our shops, and enjoy different cultures and music in the Reserve and side streets.
There’ll be food trucks, new food from around the world (& some old favourites!), retail and trading stalls, amusement rides, and competitions. In the morning we'll have schools, community groups and bands performing on stage in the Sandringham Reserve, then the Pipi Pickers, Hoop and the Elementary Penguins are there to keep you entertained in the afternoon!
Buskers, competitions, community groups, plenty of fun and games for kids, and heaps of delicious food and drinks for everyone!
Thanks heaps to the Albert-Eden Local Board for the funding to help make this event happen each year!
