The Sunshine Coast Symphony Orchestra and the talent-filled Sunshine Coast Youth Orchestra are joining together to create the largest orchestra to ever play in the region.

To house the concert, the orchestras had to search for an especially large hall, and have partnered with St Andrew’s Anglican College in Peregian Springs.
