Seafire
SeaFire 2027
SAVE THE DATE
SeaFire will return to its original beachfront format in 2026, lighting up the skies above Surfers Paradise Beach.
After last year’s reimagined event across multiple locations due to cyclone impacts, SeaFire is back where it belongs, bringing world-class pyrotechnics to one iconic coastal setting.
Presented by City of Gold Coast, this free, family-friendly event will feature three spectacular fireworks displays at 6pm, 7pm and 8pm.
Audiences can expect breathtaking international-standard displays set against the stunning Surfers Paradise beachfront, creating a vibrant winter evening filled with colour, atmosphere and entertainment.
Everyone is encouraged to arrive early to secure a spot on the sand, enjoy the lively precinct and explore the many nearby dining options. Public transport is strongly recommended due to expected crowds.
SeaFire remains one of the Gold Coast’s most anticipated events, offering a memorable night out for families, visitors and locals alike.
