There’s a pot of gold on Australia’s eastern shores, a place with golden sunrises, golden sunsets, and days filled with sun, fun, thrills, and indulgence. A place where the smiles are as wide as the golden beaches are long. Where else could we be talking about but Queensland’s sunny Gold Coast and you’re being invited to enter to WIN a 4-night holiday there!  

The golden ticket (the prize) 

Destination GC Gold Coast

The peeps at Destination Gold Coast have a heart of gold judging by this epic prize package! If you’re the lucky winner in Australia or New Zealand (yes, one lucky winner in each country), you’ll win a 4-night trip to the Goldy, including: 

  • A smashing $500 Qantas gift card 
  • 4 nights’ accommodation in the thick of all the action at the luxurious Hilton Surfers Paradise. Staying in a King Deluxe room you’ll enjoy daily breakfast for up to two adults 
  • Return seat-in-coach transfers from either Coolangatta or Brisbane Airport with Con-X-ion for up to two adults 
  • One $250 Experience Oz gift card to visit those long-wished-for attractions, tours, and experiences on the Gold Coast! 

This good-as-gold prize is valued at AU $2,366!  

While there can only be one prize winner in Australia and one in New Zealand, it’s not your only chance to walk away with a golden egg if you meet the eligibility criteria of being a registered travel agent or travel trade support team staff member who actively sells or promotes travel to the Gold Coast. And by golden egg, we mean one of the 10 runner-up $100 gift cards that the legends at Destination Gold Coast have included in the prize pool!

T&Cs apply, of course; check them out here.

The golden rule of any competition is: you’ve got to be in it to win it! Luckily, it’s super easy to get in with a shot at this epic Destination Gold Coast grand prize getaway.  

Here’s how you can take advantage of this golden opportunity: 

  • Step 1: Click on this entry form and get your deets entered. The team at Destination Gold Coast will use your deets to sign you up automatically to their travel trade e-newsletter (if you’re not already signed up). So not only will you get one step closer to winning a sunshine-laden Gold Coast trip, but you’ll also be the first to hear what’s new on the Gold Coast. Plus, there are bonus trade insights!
  • Step 2: Also on the form, write – in 50 words or less – what you’d include in your ultimate Gold Coast getaway. Will it be a visit to the fascinating Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary? Or maybe an adrenalin-fuelled few days ticking off the region’s famous theme parks? Or perhaps you’ll take to the water on a whale-watching cruise? Choices, choices!

Registrations close on 30 June 2023, so don’t take too long to whittle down that list! While it’s easy to write 1,000 words on the 100+ attractions you’d hit up, keep it to 50 words or less!  

Pure gold 

GC HOTA Art Gallery

If you’re only now signing up for the Destination Gold Coast newsletter, you may not be up-to-date on all the incredible developments on the Goldy. We’ll catch you up.  

Did you know that over a billion dollars was spent on upgrading the tourism infrastructure during the pandemic? You’ll see those upgrades in places like the new hotel offerings. This includes premium properties like Meriton Surfers Paradise, the Dorsett, the Star Residences, and the Langham. This brings the number of hotel rooms on the Gold Coast to over 21,000. 

A luxe meal goes beautifully with a luxe hotel stay and with over 20 Hatted restaurants across the Gold Coast, your clients can enjoy fine dining while visiting. This includes the famous Rick Shores in Burleigh Heads, Kiyomi at the Star Casino in Broadbeach, and Citrique in Surfers Paradise. 

One of the big appeals to a visit to the Gold Coast is that you can make it as fun or as sophisticated as you like. For thrill-seekers, the new scream-inducing Steel Taipan ride at Dreamworld and New Atlantis Precinct at Sea World are sure to wow.  

For art lovers, the impressive enhancements at HOTA (Home of the Arts) precinct are making headlines, especially the state-of-the-art 7-level HOTA Gallery.
