Sunshine Coast Open House 2025 opens to the public from October 10 to 19.
You are invited to explore the spaces that shape our region, while celebrating buildings that adapt to climate, honour heritage and inspire community.
The festival culminates in the main Open House weekend on October 18 and 19, offering rare access to more than 30 properties.
This year's theme, "resilience", runs through every element of the program from heritage walks and garden tours to new builds that showcase sustainable design and local character.

"From historic treasures that tell the stories of our past, to bold new buildings shaping our future, Sunshine Coast Open House is a celebration of the places that make the Sunshine Coast unique," Mayor Natoli said.
"Resilience isn't just a theme. It reflects how our buildings, communities and landscapes continue to evolve with care, creativity and purpose.
"This special weekend is an invitation to step inside some of the most intriguing, beautiful and surprising spaces across our region."
