Coastal Twist 1st Oct - 6 Oct is 6 days of jam packed surprises, playful and profound fun and learnings with LGBTIQ Arts & Culture from across our region, our state and our country as we invite adventurous Artists, Thinkers and Innovators to present work that simultaneously entertains and expands our worlds, our tolerance and our possibilities!
Magic happens and life is what you make it when we work together to deliver what a few years prior was thought impossible for this region!
From zero to hero we have aligned as a community, collaborated with our leading organisations, partnered with our most innovative local businesses and shared intentions with the regions largest employers and global brands to move forward with our mission for a:
A happier healthier and more welcoming Central Coast!
Our theme for this year’s Coastal Twist Festival is Rise and Shine – a call for everyone to rise above exclusion and perceived notions, fear and shine as your unique self as we join our communities in nurturing a culture of respect for a happier, healthier, and more welcoming Central Coast.
Multiple Central Coast hubs come alive with free and ticketed events to suit all ages and abilities.
