fill a need in the region to service conventions and exhibitions in a state of
the art centre. Located on the Gold Coast Highway at Broadbeach, the GCCEC
is linked by a covered walkway to the award winning Conrad Jupiters Hotel and
Casino. A monorail, running frequently, services the Grand Mercure hotel and the

the Broadbeach dining area featuring over 60 pavement cafes and restaurants. Two
major shopping centres are also within walking distance and just a few minutes
drive to the North is Surfers Paradise, a major tourist destination.
