Getting There
The Gold Coast Greek Festival will take place at Gold Coast's HOTA, at 135 Bundall Road, Surfers Paradise.
HOTA has car parks at the venue, but our car park can fill up quickly. Instead of driving there we highly recommend catching a taxi, Uber, walking or cycling. If you are going to drive, please consider carpooling. Bus: See translink.com.au to plan your journey. G:Link: Catch the G:Link to Surfers Paradise then walk across Chevron Island and the HOTA Green Bridge – it's about a 15-minute walk. Pick up and Drop off: You can be dropped off and picked up from the venue. Please use the dedicated pick up / drop off zone. Drop off and pickup on surrounding roads is not permitted. Taxis: There are two signed taxi zones within the precinct. Rideshare: We advise that you get dropped off a short distance away and walk in to avoid being held up by any traffic entering or leaving the precinct.
HOTA is committed to providing access to the performing arts for everyone. For more information about Accessibility at HOTA visit our accessibility webpage or call us on (07) 5588 4000 for specific requirements.
