Surfers Paradise Festival Street Parade

Presented by BMD Northcliffe Surf Club. See the Gold Coast gather to celebrate the coming of the Surfers Paradise Festival with a lantern parade peopled by community groups, school children, marching bands and acrobats.

This mobile spectacle snakes through the streets of Surfers Paradise en route to the official opening on Surfers Paradise Beach, where a fireworks spectacle launches to mark the start of four weekends of free community events and cultural activities in the heart of the city.

Whether you tweet it, sing it, post it, pin it or say it... let the word go forth: the Surfers Paradise Festival has begun!
