Got an idea for a future festival? A project you’re dreaming up? Or thoughts on what you want from a cultural festival on the Sunshine Coast?

Every Thursday for four weeks, Festival Director Bec Martin is hosting open drop-in sessions at libraries across the Coast. It’s a relaxed, welcoming space to pitch ideas, ask questions, share feedback, or simply connect.

Your voice matters in building a festival that reflects and celebrates this region.

Horizon’s 10th year has drawn to a close, leaving behind a trail of moments across the Sunshine Coast – on stages, in streets, through halls, and everything in between.

For ten years now, this festival has been shaped by the artists who bring it to life and the community who step into it. This year was no different – full of colour, sound, tenderness, joy, and connection across the Sunshine Coast.

To every artist, crew member, partner and audience member – thank you. Your presence is what gives Horizon its pulse.

With deep thanks to our community,
