Sunshine Coast Open House 18-19 October 2025

Sunshine Coast Open House is a free community event which offers rare behind-the-scenes access to the Sunshine Coast’s best buildings ranging from private homes, corporate buildings, heritage treasures and sustainable spaces. The eighth annual Sunshine Coast Open House weekend will showcase historic, 
contemporary and sustainable buildings from Caloundra to the Hinterland and Cooran.

The Open House event has opened many architecturally diverse buildings each year for the public to tour.  Sunshine Coast Open House also hosts a number of associated events, walking tours, and talks each year, including its annual Open Forum which focuses on topical, thought-provoking issues.
