St Brendan's Fete 8 November 2026

Join us for a day of fun - pet the animals, play some games, eat some food and help build our community!


To keep things smooth and speedy, the fete is cashless. Everything on the day will run on pre-purchased tickets.

Get in early and get bonus tickets; the earlier you buy, the more you can get!

Everything at the fete runs on tickets

St Brendan's Fete is back on Sunday 8 November, 10.30am to 1.30pm, at St Brendan's, 34 Collins St, Annandale.

This year the fete is cashless. Every game, attraction, treat and stall takes the same tickets. You won't need to hunt for change, and the queues move faster.

Buy before the day and you get bonus tickets.

What things cost

Games: 3 to 5 tickets (ring toss, balloon darts, bottle knockdown, pachinko, Pass the Footy)
Jumping castle or petting zoo: 6 tickets
Dunk tank: 8 tickets a go
Face painting or hair braiding: 10 tickets
Sausage sizzle, coffee, fairy floss or snow cone: 6 tickets
Souvlaki wrap: 10 tickets
Cake slice or lolly bag: 5 tickets
Drinks: 3 tickets
Bric a brac: from 3 tickets

Which pack suits you?

A little one who does the castle, the petting zoo, face painting and a couple of games, then has a sausage and a fairy floss, uses about 45 tickets. That's a Grandstand.

A bigger kid who wants the dunk tank, the castle twice, every game and lunch will get through 70 to 90. That's a Big Top.

A family of four with two kids, where the parents want coffee and lunch too, will use around 160. That's a Ring Master, and buying before the day is what makes it cover you.

Our Friends of the Fete pay the upfront costs of stalls and games, so every dollar you spend on the day stays in our community.

Become a Friend of the Fete, $250

New for 2026.

In the past the fete has been backed by a handful of local businesses. Friends of the Fete opens that up to the families, grandparents and parishioners who make the day what it is.

Your $250 pays the upfront costs of the day, hiring the attractions and building the games. That means every dollar spent on fete day stays in our community.

As a Friend you receive:

• A Big Top pack of 90 tickets, ready for you on the day

• Your family name on the Friends of the Fete wall

• A Friends wristband to wear on the day

• A thank you from the stage

• A certificate presented by the children

• An invitation to the supporters' thank you event

• The option to be listed in honour or in memory of someone special

Strictly limited to 50 and close Sunday 1 November, so the names can be printed in time.

Collecting your tickets

Tickets will be available for collection on the day. For school families who purchase early we hope to distribute in the week leading up to the fete.
