Celebrations at Cavill Lane Surfers Paradise

For example, on October 1, visit Cavill Lane in the country. You are welcome to FREE line dancing instruction and LIVE entertainment from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Then, on October 13, celebrate Friday the 13th from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. in Cavill Lane Surfers Paradise. Take advantage of a LIVE DJ, wandering characters, and Haunted Surprises. Dress up in full costume* to win tickets to The Haunted Passage Entrapment and Haunted Maze. The Halloween event continues from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on October 27-29 and 31. The Haunted Passage Entrapment, pop-up bar, cinematic DJ, scare performers, eateries, themed booths, and more are available.

Fright Nights at Warner Bros. Movie World and Spooky Nights at Sea World

The Gold Coast’s world-class theme parks host an outstanding Halloween event yearly. But keep in mind that each event has its target.

The family should go to Spooky Nights at Sea World if you have young ones. Your children will enjoy exploring the Spooky Nights precincts, attractions, activities, shows, and permanent attractions and rides. All of them are kid-friendly, but if your kids are old enough and enjoy being scared, Fright Nights at Warner Bros Movie World is the perfect event for the family.

The scares are non-stop at Fright Nights. Aside from the rides, there are four horrifying districts to explore, eight panic rooms with moderate thrills and five mazes with extreme thrills. Are you up for the challenges that await you at Fright Nights?

Spooky Nights at Sea World will be available on select nights beginning October 13, while Fright Nights at Warner Bros. Movie World will be available starting October 6.

Groundwater Country Music Festival

Are you a country music fan who enjoys a good party? Groundwater Country Music Festival will return on October 20-22, featuring some top country artists in the business. Expect nothing less than the greatest when they enter their tenth year in 2023.

Take note that the festival is entirely free to attend! However, if you want to sit in the front row, a ‘first in, best dressed’ policy is in effect. The festival happens in Broadbeach on the Gold Coast’s streets, parks, and venues.
