After 15 unforgettable summers under the stars, Nightjar is returning in 2026 with a bold new vision: Nightjar – The Summer Series.<\/p>\n

Long known for its balmy nights, live music, artisan markets and laid-back Surf Coast spirit, the beloved festival is evolving into a two-week celebration of music, art, culture, and health – running from sunrise to late night across a series of curated events.<\/p>\n

Each event is designed to connect the community, inspire creativity, and keep the soul of Old Torquay alive.<\/p>\n

This next chapter is being led by Nightjar founder Lyndelle Flintoft, alongside new creative director Emily Hazell – a local changemaker and the founder of Melbourne’s renowned Serotonin Eatery.<\/p>\n

Emily brings her expertise in wellness, placemaking, and community-building to reimagine Nightjar for a new generation.<\/p>\n

“This year’s Nightjar isn’t just a festival – it’s a way of life,”\u00a0Emily said.<\/p>\n

“It’s about deepening connection, celebrating creativity, and building something that reflects the values of our community: inclusivity, sustainability, and heart.”<\/p>\n

Introducing the Summer Series, now kicking off in the last week of December 2025, Nightjar, will unfold across multiple themed days and nights, each one curated with intention.<\/p>\n

The Summer Series begins on December 29, kicking off with the big thrift market from 1pm until 9pm, featuring a retro revival of vintage gems, local fashion and sustainable finds, before the series comes to an end on Sunday, January 11.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Headlined by Nightjar Festival on Friday, January 2 and January 9, the iconic music, food and market night returns, bigger than ever, stay tuned for the lineup.<\/p>\n

New to the event is the Big Exhale, a futuristic and thought-provoking health day to ground, align and reset for the year ahead.<\/p>\n

Mental Health Mornings will feature movement, connection, breath and the perfect way to start a summers day.<\/p>\n

The Slow Lane event includes tiny homes, slow-cooked food, conscious brands and deeper conversations on how to look after the coast line.<\/p>\n

An evening of dance and fun for the singles will also take place with the Big Date Night.<\/p>\n

Stay tuned for the full lineup and series program to be unveiled later this year.<\/p>\n

In a New Era for an Old Favourite, more than 50,000 people are expected to engage with the festival across the season.<\/p>\n

For sponsors and partners, this is a rare opportunity to connect with a highly engaged, multigenerational audience who care about creativity, community and culture.<\/p>\n

With the ongoing support of GORCAPA, Nightjar is now firmly planted on the annual major events calendar, sitting proudly alongside the Rip Curl Pro and Lorne Pier to Pub.<\/p>\n

“We don’t build campaigns – we build culture, and events that bring communities together,”\u00a0Lyndelle said.<\/p>\n

“Every partnership is tailored and meaningful. We’re calling on values-aligned brands and businesses to join us in creating something iconic.”<\/p>\n

The proudly female-led, locally owned company is now looking ahead with purpose. As Nightjar nestles back into its home on the Common, the team are focused on building a strong and sustainable future – one shaped by collaboration, creativity and connection.<\/p>\n
