Head start

Get in front of the pack and book these medalworthy restaurants ahead of next year’s Gold Coast Commonwealth Games.

The best seats at the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games won’t only be in the stadiums’ front rows. Some of the most exciting events – from marathons to cycling – will pass by the Goldie’s eateries, transforming its 52 kilometres of beaches and a 36-kilometre network of pathways into bustling sports arenas. But those centreof-the-action tables won’t last forever; we may be a year out from the Games but now is the time to book.

Catch some of the Games action from Elephant Rock Café, (top left) Seaduction Restaurant + Bar (above) and Bin 72
