About the Gold Coast 500:

The Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500 is one of Australia’s most iconic street racing events, held annually on the Surfers Paradise street circuit. The event has been a key part of the Supercars Championship since 2010, and builds on a proud history of international motorsport on the Gold Coast dating back to the Indy events in the early 1990s.

Now recognised as Queensland’s largest annual sporting event, the GC500 attracts significant national and international attention each year and has become a defining feature of the Gold Coast’s major events calendar.
