This will be followed by Spanish-themed food, wine and dance on Friday night.
Mr Squires said Reignite was a mini-festival program which this year served as a precursor to the annual 10-day Noosa alive! festival scheduled for July 15 – 24.
“After the challenges and restrictions of COVID over the past year and the cancelling of events, it is genuinely exciting to again be presenting a program of live performances here on the Sunshine Coast,” Mr Squires said.
He said the literary highlight of the festival was Friday’s sold-out Noosa Boathouse dinner and conversation night with Boy Swallows Universe author Trent Dalton.

Words by August Billy
Across three weekends in January, Melbourne Museum will come to life with parties and live music.
The new year is here, but Melbourne Music Week – Extended is far from over. Thankfully, the event program largely comprises artists from or based in Melbourne and surrounds, meaning it’s full steam ahead with the final two months of gigs.
As is typical of Melbourne Music Week, the events are taking place in many of the city’s most revered locations. This includes the Melbourne Museum, which will play host to six nights of outdoor performances across the month of January. Here are three shows not to miss.
