Event Showcase
Cupids Masquerade Ball presented by the Rangebow
THE RANGEBOW Festival is proud to announce the inaugural Cupids Masquerade Ball, a Valentine’s Day celebration tailored specifically for adults aged 18+ with disabilities. This unique event will be held on Friday, February 14, 2025, from 6 – 10 PM, at the stunning Altitude Nine, the new top-floor event space in City Hall, Maroochydore, offering breathtaking coastal and hinterland views.
This unique Valentine’s Day Ball will be a celebration of community, accessibility and inclusion.
The Rangebow Festival has built a strong reputation for delivering accessible, diverse, and inclusive events that bring joy to the Sunshine Coast community. Recognising the need for bespoke events for adults with disabilities, the team has designed the Cupids Masquerade Ball to provide a safe and welcoming environment for fun and friendship.
Festival Director Wayne Parcell said the unique event is specifically designed for people living with disabilities to enjoy a night out in a beautiful space.
“The venue is accessible, and there will be a sensory space available to ensure that neurodiverse attendees can be comfortable at the event, which might otherwise be a little overwhelming.
“This event is possible because of the support and encouragement we have received from The Compass Institute Inc, an award-winning Sunshine Coast-based ‘For Purpose’ organisation, dedicated to providing support for people with intellectual and/or physical disabilities.”
The Ball will feature live entertainment from a band and DJ who will provide music all night and each ticket holder will receive a mask, a mocktail and delicious gourmet food. All of this will be enjoyed from the vantage of one of the most spectacular venues on the Sunshine Coast at Altitude Nine in Maroochydore. Tickets are just $79 and will be limited to just 150. The event will be alcohol-free.
The Cupids Masquerade Ball is also looking for businesses and the broader community who would like to support the event by way of sponsorship with opportunities available to do so. People can also contribute by gifting tickets for the Support Workers and Carers accompanying attendees.
The organising committee is thankful for the funding and support already provided by Mayor Rosanna Natoli and Councillor Taylor Bunnag from Sunshine Coast Council.
