Gold Coast Treasures

Gold Coast Treasures

The Gold Coast is filled with an array of treasures.

Our locals are so rich and diverse, many with a great story to tell. Meanwhile, there are places along the glitter strip that tell a story of our city’s history and culture.

So to celebrate our city in all its glory and show off its people and places, myGC has launched this Gold Coast Treasures video series.  Every week, we will be showcasing a treasured local person or place here on the Gold Coast, with an exclusive video interview. It’s part of our commitment to our amazing city and the people that live here.

If you’d like to nominate someone you think should be profiled with a video interview for Gold Coast Treasures please let us know.

Have a look at the great Gold Coast Treasures we have discovered so far!
