What We Celebrate

The purpose of this not-for-profit festival is to demonstrate through positive messages that the festival themes are integral to the wellbeing of a cohesive community valuing everyone and their contribution individually and together. The festival takes place annually primarily across the Sunshine Coast Hinterland communities of Maleny, Montville, Flaxton and Mapleton.


The rich contribution brought to communities by individuals of diverse backgrounds, personality, life experiences and beliefs.

Wellbeing through increased awareness by communities of individuals as valuable members of the community.

Understanding of how we can meet our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Respectful conversation, listening, discussion and interaction for unification and healing with the traditional custodians of the country on which we live and work.

We want everyone to celebrate that they can be themselves.
