Gold Coast Music Awards

The red carpet was rolled out along the beach side of Surfers Paradise for the Gold Coast Music Awards. Emm caught up with some of the finalists before the award ceremony and live entertainment on the big stage.

Surfers Paradise Sand Safari

Surfers Paradise Sand Safari Arts Festivals take centre stage on the sands and streets of Surfers Paradise. It is Asia-Pacific’s leading sand-and-sea-inspired arts event, with an exciting program featuring free sand sculpting workshops, Australian Sand Sculpting Championships, and much more.

 

We met Internationally renowned UK artist Luke Egan (aka Filthy Luker) and viewed his vibrant collection of inflatable creatures, stretching from Surfers Paradise Beach, along Cavill Avenue and into the Nerang River.

Glow

The Evandale Parklands was thrown into spectrums of lights, colours, music and action as some of the Gold Coast’s creatives launched into Glow 2015.  Portia Large was there to cover the spectacle and talk to people as they enjoyed the illuminated night of entertainment, activities, artworks, and displays.  Lanterns were launched across the lake in a landmark creative community project called watershed.

Presented by Portia Large.
