Gold Coast 600
No one really needs an excuse for a long weekend in the Gold Coast, but if you ever did need one, the Supercars Gold Coast 600 is a great reason to pop over for a few days in Surfers Paradise.
This year the Gold Coast 600 moves to December and will be the finale of the 2021 season. The on-track action will be as hot as the Gold Coast weather, as the drivers race around the tight Surfers Paradise street circuit. So start rounding up your crew now and let us take care of everything for you.
