The Gold Coast pumps with events all year 'round.

Revheads, get your engines started at the Indy Grand Prix. It's hot on the track and hotter off it, with the Miss Indy competition showcasing some of the country's most scorching women.

The sport of kings takes centre stage with the Gold Coast Turf Club's Magic Millions Race Day, quite possibly the best-named horse race on the planet.

There's surfing, of course - the world-famous Billabong Pro (and the Roxy Pro for the girls) is one of the undisputed highlights of the World Tour.

And if music is your thang, we've got you covered in spades. Splendour in the Grass, Summer Field Dayze and the plethora of international acts hitting the brand new Gold Coast Convention centre means you can rock out with your 'er, well, you can just rock out, all day every day.

Perve on the buffed up Iron Men and Women at the Coolangatta Gold, throw water at the competitors in the Gold Coast Marathon, or if you're young and like to party hit Schoolies Week, where Australia's friendliest police force are on hand to share in the fun and keep the streets safe.

And there's plenty more, it's all on at the Gold Coast.
