Put your name behind events that give young people a stage.
CABA Progressive is part of two Sunshine Coast festivals that put young people at the centre: STUFFit Student Film Festival, run by and for high school students, and Nurture Festival, a free day on the Mooloolaba foreshore supporting youth wellbeing. When you sponsor an event, you back the young people behind it and put your business in front of the community that turns up.
Two festivals, one idea: young people deserve a stage
STUFFit Student Film Festival
An international film festival run by high school students, for high school students, and celebrating 15 years in 2026. Every year it welcomes films from young filmmakers around the world. This year 163 films were entered from 8 countries, and 45 of them were made right here on the Sunshine Coast.
Sponsors have backed the festival in many ways, from the venue and technology to promotion and individual award categories.

Nurture Festival
A free day on the Mooloolaba foreshore that brings young people, families and local services together around youth wellbeing, with live music, panel discussions, hands-on activities and a beach obstacle course.
Its message is simple: when young people are nurtured, so is the future. Sponsoring Nurture puts your business beside a day the whole community comes to enjoy.
Ask about Nurture FestivalSponsor the festival, an award or a part of the day
Every event is different, so sponsorship is shaped around it. At STUFFit, for example, sponsors have supported the venue, the technology, promotion and individual award categories. Tell us what you would like to support and we will suggest what fits.
One conversation, then a simple agreement
We start with a chat about which festival suits you and what you would like out of it. From there we agree what you will receive and put it in writing before any payment. The first conversation commits you to nothing.
Back young people where the whole community can see it.
This is an expression of interest only. We will be in touch to explore what fits.
