The Noosa Come Together Festival is taking shape to be one of the biggest family events on the coast.
The free event encompasses the Noosa Busking Championship finals and is held along the beautiful Noosa River stretching from the Noosa Yacht and Rowing club down to Pelican Park.
Now in its fifth year, the event is a fundraiser supporting local disabled persons engage in activities such as the Noosa Sailability program which is run through the Noosa Rowing and Yacht club and Sunshine Coast Riding for the Disabled.
One of the initial event creators and Gympie Muster mastermind Oz Bayldon is excited that this year is going to be the biggest and best to date.
“This year we’ve got unprecedented support from the local community and sponsors which has enabled us to have three live stages showcasing over twenty diverse musicians and groups, and theres over $6000 in the busking prize pool to be won,” Oz said.
“We also have over twenty local food and stall holders, a massive kid’s field that costs just five dollars for three hours of unlimited fun and when the sun goes down we put on Noosa’s Biggest Laser Show.”
In the past the event has not only provided a free family weekend enjoyed by both locals and visitors alike, it also attracted superstars such as Tones & I who competed in the 2018 Noosa ANBC event.
The event also has an online auction, with services and products donated by local businesses with proceeds going towards the charities.
“We’ve been overwhelmed by the generosity and caliber of items donated to our online auction, there’s even two tickets up for grabs to see the southern lights,” Oz said.
“This year we’re expecting a huge attendance, not only is it a great day out that brings the Noosa Community and visitors together, the festival also provides monetary assistance and awareness to disabled activities in need of critical funding.”
Major sponsors of the event is Laguna Real Estates with contributing sponsors Coast2Coast Eartmoving and RJS Accounting Services.
The Festival runs from 11am until 7pm Sunday 6 June from the Noosa Yacht Club and beyond.
Parking is available by donation at Chaplin Park. Items up for auction are listed on the website.
