As the sun sets, ground your feet, as we gather on the shores of the Maroochy River, to celebrate and pay our respects to Traditional Custodians of the waterways, coastal plains and hinterlands of the Sunshine Coast, the Kabi Kabi and Jinibara peoples, and open the eighth Horizon Festival 2023.
Come, sit, reflect, and welcome the start of 10 days and nights of rich programming from across the region — and Australia — including special performances from Gubbi Gubbi Dance Troupe and more.
Following the Opening Ceremony and NOISE by Dancenorth Australia be the first to experience the Opening Night performance of Briefs Dirty Laundry and enjoy local brews, tasty food and music in the Festival Hub garden.
