Gold Coast show teens and tweens!
We’re really excited for the 2024 Gold Coast Show from 30 August to 1 September – there are heaps on for both local families and for those coming from further away. This year it will be held at the Broadwater Parklands and it boasts free entry for everybody!
But what about the moodier members of the family? You know who I’m talking about. The door slammers. The music listeners. The communicate-by-grunts-ers.
Teens and tweens can be the hardest members of the family to get interested, enthusiastic or involved in family days out.
Luckily for you, the Gold Coast Show teens and tweens-friendly attractions are going to really get their heads up from those screens and the smiles back on those faces!
Showbags
- An awesome showbag pavillion packed full with all your older kid’s favourites

Animals

- Dog competitions!
- Petting zoo, barnyard pals and cute squishy piglets to coo over

Gold Coast Show teens and tweens family spirit
One of our favourite things about the Gold Coast Show? It’s still a community festival. It won’t be so packed that you’ll be worried about your kids getting lost. There will be plenty of security personnel as well as stall-owners to make sure everything goes smoothly. The prices aren’t astronomical, the parking is plentiful and the vibes will be awesome.
