As the sun sets on the Horizon program, don’t miss Secret Garden as your perfect weekend wind-down – a heart‑warming way to spend Mother’s Day.
The bushland and birdsong provide the perfect backdrop for live music at Maroochy Botanic Garden in Tanawha. Guests are invited to roll out a picnic rug, share food with friends, and settle in for an afternoon where music, nature and good vibes are centre stage.
Secret Garden offers a chance to relax and reconnect – with each other, with local performers, and with the landscape.
The event takes place outdoors at Maroochy Botanic Garden in Tanawha, surrounded by bushland and birdsong. Please bring whatever you need to be comfortable, such as a picnic rug, chairs, hats, sunscreen and water, and feel free to bring your own picnic to enjoy during the performance. Expect a relaxed afternoon of live music in nature, the perfect Mother’s Day wind‑down. Suitable for all ages and abilities. Please leave pets at home, as domestic animals are not permitted; accredited assistance dogs are welcome.
A heads up — photography and filming may take place during Horizon events for promotional use. If you’d prefer not to be in any of the shots, please chat to one of our Horizon staff on the day.
