2027 Festival

Start preparing your in person performances!

The 53rd Sunshine Coast Festival of the Performing Arts takes place in person and is open to amateur performers of all and ages and levels. The Highlights Concert features the top performers. Both the Festival and Concert performances are livestreamed to share with audiences at the venue and virtually.

Much is planned in great anticipation to get together to continue the long tradition of supporting, growing, and promoting amateur performing artists on the Sunshine Coast.

We so look forward to sharing the love of the performing arts, watching performances, and learning from adjudicators who will offer their professional guidance through written and live adjudication.

The planning for this year’s Festival is being inspired and guided by our Strategic Plan and its three strategic priorities aimed at:

  • Promoting inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA)
  • Growing community engagement and awareness alongside performer participation
  • Supporting and strengthening organizational and financial capacity
