The Gold Coast is one of the best places in Australia to ring in the new year. With its subtropical climate and vibrant nightlife, there is no shortage of exciting ways to celebrate on the coastal strip.
For families, nearby suburbs including Broadbeach (just south of Surfers Paradise), Coolangatta, Coomera, and Paradise Point hold free fireworks spectaculars offering perfect for viewing with little ones. Pack a picnic and claim your spot early for the best views of the fireworks bursting over the parklands.
Partygoers will want to check out the major ticketed events in Broadbeach like Jupiters Casino’s carnival-like atmosphere complete with live music performances and huge fireworks at the stroke of midnight. Nearby, several also host lavish parties fuelled by open bars and international DJ acts long into the wee hours.
Those seeking a more intimate setting could dine out at the iconic revolving restaurant at Q1 before catching the city lights display at midnight. Down south, elegant multi-course Waterfront Restaurant dinners paired with views of Burleigh Heads fireworks are memorable options too.
No visit to the Gold Coast on New Year’s Eve is complete without embracing the lively, anything-goes vibes that Australia’s holiday is renowned for along vibrant Orchid Avenue and Cavill Avenue!
Stay tuned for events as we near NYE 2024.
