You’d be forgiven if you thought that Australia’s Gold Coast was just a home to world-class Village Roadshow Studios, highly experienced crews, a range of easily accessible locations and the host of over thirty feature films and television series in the past eight years. It is what the City is predominantly known for in the screen industry.
But that’s not all.
The Gold Coast is one of the best places in the world that makes ‘working’ here an absolute joy. There’s no crocodiles, box jellyfish or snakes. Just 32 miles of uninterrupted golden beach, majestic rolling rainforests, five-star accommodation, restaurants that could tease any palate and an outdoor lifestyle at any time of year. It is a City that has all the down-to-earth warmth and charm of a regional town, with all the vibrance and opportunity of a sophisticated city.
The Gold Coast has all the makings of a great story – whether that be on set or when you’re looking to experience something special in your down time. Below, TAG, your experienced Film and Production Travel Managers, have provided some suggestions for you to consider once you’ve booked the Studios and locked in those locations for your next production on the Gold Coast. We can’t wait to welcome you!
Hotels:
There are hotels to suit everyone and every budget on the Gold Coast. Amongst our client’s favourites, we have picked out the following selection from Broadbeach, a short distance from the bustling Surfers Paradise. Broadbeach boasts a world-class dining scene with an abundance of quality restaurants and social scene, becoming a favourite location for many cast and crew from international film productions.
However, if it’s action you’re looking for, then look no further than the vibrant Surfers Paradise that boasts an array of bars, nightclubs, and restaurants.
The Gold Coast has fast become a melting pot for world-class dining experiences, whether you’ve had a busy day in the studio, or you’ve just come off the beach having taken a well-deserved day off. The Gold Coast has culinary delights to suit all tastes. Below is a selection of favourites our clients keep going back to.
