Sandstorm Events is bringing the thrill of sand sculpting back to its spiritual home at the popular Frankston Waterfront for the 2025 Australian Sand Sculpting Championships.
From 5 - 27 April, the pristine Frankston Waterfront will serve as the backdrop Australia's top sand sculptors will compete for the prestigious title of Australian Champion and Doubles Champions, unveiling their incredible creations inspired by “The Villains of Storytime.”
In an epic showdown of sand and creativity, spectators can watch sculptors race to finish their sand masterpieces. These life-sized sculptures will showcase iconic literary villains, highlighting the crucial role villains play in stories, as the hero’s journey cannot shine without them.
The event will feature a mix of family-friendly activities where children can also enjoy workshops, speed carving demonstrations, and the Sandsational Easter Egg Hunt (on Easter weekend). The Sand Museum will also showcase the fascinating history of sand sculpting in Australia, making this a must-visit event for art and culture lovers alike.
