Noosa Alive Festival is once again calling for all future stars, to audition for the 2023 Noosa Stars Alive talent competition for up-and-coming young performers.

Offering the chance of a lifetime, applications to audition for the competition are now open and festival director Ian Mackellar is encouraging all young performers and stars of the future, to get their register now for their audition.

Noosa Stars Alive is a talent competition, open to young performers eight-18 years of age across multiple genres including Music, Dance, Comedy, specialty performers who are residents of the Sunshine Coast local government areas.

Twelve finalists will be selected from the auditions and those finalists will be given the opportunity to perform before a live audience on the big stage in Noosa Woods with professional sound, lighting and stage crew. This provides invaluable experience for the young artists performing.

Selected finalists will perform in front of a live audience at Noosa Stars Alive Final presented by Noosa Alive Festival on Saturday 29 July 2023 in Noosa Woods. Kate Ceberano headlines the day-long musical showcase that includes the Sunshine Coast’s best and brightest performing in the NOOSA Stars Alive! final.

The winner to be announced on the day will receive a cash prize, together with a guaranteed (paid) performance at Noosa alive! Festival 2024.
