Bendigo Easter Festival 2025

The Bendigo Easter Festival is a sensory explosion, and in 2025, the visuals were more spectacular than ever. Whether it was the sharp contrast of the fireworks over the city skyline or the blurred motion of Carnival Central, the long weekend offered endless inspiration for every type of photographer.

Below, you’ll find a video showcase and a collection of 50 photographs documenting the best of the festival. Witness the tribute to Rod Fyffe OAM during the Torchlight Procession and get a front-row seat to the world’s longest Imperial Dragon. If you couldn't make it to Bendigo this year, this gallery is the next best thing to being there.

The Gallery

This gallery brings together two distinct sides of Bendigo’s iconic Easter weekend: the dizzying motion and neon lights of the carnival rides, and the flickering warmth of the Saturday night Torchlight Procession. Whether capturing the laughter of the fairground or the quiet reverence of the community parade, these photos serve as a visual tribute to a festival that continues to blend high-energy fun with deep-rooted tradition.
