About the event
The Bioglan Bells Beach Longboard Classic brings the World Surf League's Longboard Tour to Bells Beach on Victoria's Surf Coast. The 2026 event runs from 25 to 29 November, with 24 men and 24 women in the draw.
It is the second of four stops on the 2026/27 WSL Longboard Tour. The tour opens at Huntington Beach, California (25 to 29 July 2026), comes to Bells, moves to La Union in the Philippines (20 to 24 January 2027) and finishes in El Salvador (13 to 21 March 2027). The top 12 men and top 12 women go through to El Salvador, where the world titles are decided.
Local surfers have a way in. The Victoria Trials give a main-event place to the winning man and woman. Surfing Victoria's calendar lists the trials at Torquay Point on 24 November, marked provisional. The Victorian Government and the WSL have secured the event at Bells until at least 2027.
Planning around the dates
The dates move from year to year: the event ran in July in 2024 and in September in 2025. Within each window, heats can start late, pause or finish early depending on the swell, so check the WSL's daily call before heading to the beach.
QUIVER lists surf events so you can plan around them. The organiser is the final word on dates, entries and daily calls.
