  • Introduction

    Experience Supercars, surf and sand by day with chart-topping performances by night.

    Regarded as one of Queensland’s marquee events, Gold Coast 500 transforms the iconic streets and shores of Surfers Paradise each October into a dynamic race circuit that’s as challenging as it is picturesque. It’s a unique spectacle that marries the adrenaline of Supercars racing with the leisure of coastal life with non-stop entertainment.

    Navigating one of the most demanding tracks on the Supercars calendar, drivers contend with a labyrinth of sharp turns, undulating surfaces, and scenic chicanes, all under the gaze of the towering skyline and ocean backdrop. As the sun sets, the tempo rises with electrifying post-race concerts featuring a lineup of international and Australian artists, historically including acts like Hilltop Hoods and Cold Chisel.

    As an Official Partner of Supercars for many years, we have a range of official travel packages on sale now including; official tickets (general admission, Fanstands, grandstands and hospitality suites), handpicked accommodation, including apartments and track view rooms, plus optional extra travel services such as extra nights, flights, transport, sightseeing, travel insurance, rental cars and more to customise your trip. Make a holiday of it and experience Supercars on the Gold Coast in 2024, we’d love to get you there.

    From value stays in apartments to 5-star resorts with track view rooms, the Gold Coast has options to suit all budgets and travel styles, and our packages make it happen.

    Whether you’re celebrating with friends, enjoying a family getaway, or marking a milestone, the Gold Coast 500 will confidently deliver an exceptional travel adventure.

  • Event information

    Surfers Paradise Street Circuit

    First appearing on the Australian motorsport calendar in 1991, the street circuit located on the Gold Coast in Surfers Paradise is a high speed, concrete-lined, thrill ride that was shortened for the new look event in 2010.

    The temporary street circuit has created carnage in the past, particularly when drivers don’t show the patience that is required to come out unscathed. Both races are 250km on a circuit that’s 2.96km in length. Drivers complete 85 laps per race. The short track allows for better spectating, providing fans with great entertainment value.

  • Travel tips

    • The Gold Coast 500 takes place on the Surfers Paradise Street Circuit with temporary safety barriers. Due to this we recommend upgrading to a Fanstand ticket, grandstand ticket or hospitality package to ensure you get the best track views over the barriers.
    • If you’re planning a special occasion or treating colleagues, you can’t go past a hospitality suite. These give you access to an exclusive venue with gourmet food, premium drinks, entertainment, programs, TVs, indoor and outdoor seating and more. Inclusions vary per suite and package.
    • If you’re after an extra special weekend, try our track view rooms at the JW Marriott resort. While not the best place to watch the race from, being close to the track and seeing cars from above gives a unique perspective and will ensure you feel part of the action.
    • All packages include a Pit Lane Walk at a scheduled time over the weekend to see the inner workings of the pits, team garages and more. This is a great extra to enhance your race experience.
