Byron Latin Fiesta 2026: Latin Music, Dance & a Byron Bay Weekend
Byron Bay will turn up the rhythm this spring when the Byron Latin Fiesta returns for its 21st edition.
Running from 29 October to 1 November 2026, this multi-day celebration brings Latin music, dancing, workshops and social events to one of Australia's favourite coastal destinations.
If you're staying in Brunswick Heads, Byron Bay is just down the coast, making the festival an easy addition to a North Coast holiday.
What is the Byron Latin Fiesta?
The Byron Latin Fiesta is a celebration of Latin dance, music and culture. The event brings together dancers and music lovers for several days of workshops, performances, parties and social dancing.
Whether you're an experienced dancer or simply love the atmosphere of Latin music, it provides another reason to visit Byron Bay during spring.
Four Days in Byron Bay
The 2026 event runs from Thursday 29 October through Sunday 1 November. Rather than simply attending for one evening, visitors can turn the fiesta into an entire Byron Shire getaway.
Spend the morning at the beach, explore Byron Bay or Brunswick Heads during the day and enjoy the festival atmosphere later.
Discover Byron Beyond the Festival
Visitors can walk to the Cape Byron Lighthouse, swim at the region's famous beaches, explore local shops and galleries, enjoy cafes and restaurants or simply slow down and embrace the relaxed North Coast lifestyle.
Nearby destinations include Brunswick Heads, Bangalow, Mullumbimby, Newrybar and Lennox Head.
Stay in Brunswick Heads
If you'd prefer to retreat somewhere quieter after the festival, Brunswick Heads is a great alternative to staying in the centre of Byron Bay.
Brunswick combines beautiful beaches, the Brunswick River, cafes, restaurants and a classic coastal-village atmosphere. It also puts you in a great position to explore both Byron Bay to the south and the Tweed Coast to the north.
