Student Experience Gold Coast

Did you know Cooly Rocks On Festival starts next week? 🎶🚗

One of Australia's largest nostalgia festivals is taking over Coolangatta from 3–7 June - and it's the perfect weekend adventure! Think 900+ incredible cars lining the streets, live rock 'n' roll, rockabilly and swing music, Pin-Up Pageants and tribute shows, all set against the backdrop of one of the GC's most beautiful beaches. 🌊

Best of all, most of it is free! 🕺

That's a wrap on our Mexican Fiesta Social Lunch! 🌮🎉

What an afternoon at the Gold Coast Student Hub - good food, great company, and live music to set the vibe. It was so lovely to see so many students come together, take a break from study, and enjoy a proper fiesta! 🎶✨

Tacos, Mexican bingo - and a whole lot of new friendships made. This is exactly what student life on the Gold Coast is all about. 💚

See you at the next one.

What a day learning all about our incredible city! 🏙️

It all kicked off with a Mayor's Leadership Conversation at the Hub with Mayor Tom Tate before our MSAs headed to the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre for a behind-the-scenes venue tour. The day rounded out with an insightful city workshop covering everything from council structure and local programs like NaturallyGC and the Active & Healthy Program, to key industry insights from Invest Gold Coast. ✨

We wonder what the MSA's will be getting up to June?

This week is National Reconciliation Week 🤍🖤💛

The theme for 2026 is All In - a reminder that reconciliation isn't a one-off moment, it's something we commit to every single day. Whether that's listening to First Nations voices, learning about Country, or simply showing up with respect and an open heart - every action counts.

At the Gold Coast Student Hub, we're proud to stand alongside our community in support of reconciliation. 🌿
