Nambour Heritage Soundtrail puts the hipster into one of our oldest towns

SUITABILITY
This walk is suitable for all agers.

HIGHLIGHTS
Drawing together history and community heritage, local stories and great original music, the Nambour Heritage Soundtrail is a contemporary take on a truly historic town.
The Soundtrail is a GPS activated audio story trail that features 18 Nambour stories told by locals, including Bob Collins, June Upton, Brent Miller, Lyndon Davis and many more. From the sugar mill, beauty quests and an old Vogue cinema, to Bayards Corner and Collins Café, the Nambour Heritage Soundtrail brings to life the stories and memories that are buried beneath the streets of Nambour. With Powderfinger and ABC Sunshine Coast’s Jon Coghill as the narrator, sound design by award-winning producer Hamish Sewell and stunning backings by local band Biscuit, the Nambour Heritage Soundtrail puts the hipster into the heritage of one of the Sunshine Coast’s oldest towns.
