Over 70,000 performers in seven weeks, can you imagine that? That was what fans and holiday goers expected out of the Gold Coast Eisteddfod. If you missed it last year, then be sure to catch it this time at at Robina and Albert Waterways Community Centres and Arts Centre Gold Coast from July 28th to September 9th, 2016.

Dubbed as the largest cultural event in the city and in the country, the Gold Coast Eisteddfod traces its humble beginnings back in 1982, when it was part of the region’s first ever festival ‘Tropicarnival’; the competition then received 600 entries. Today, Eisteddfod receives diverse volumes of entries from the south east Queensland region and other parts of Australia.

There are individuals, Primary and Secondary Schools and more than 70 Dance Studios who participate in sections which include Solo and Group Dance, Piano, Strings, Brass and Wind, Instrumental Groups, Bands, Orchestras, Vocal, Choral and Special Needs. Additionally, a spectacular concert 'The Musicale' will be held at The Theatre Arts Centre on October 16th to feature the most outstanding performers.

The Eisteddfod has forged links with the Welsh International Eisteddfod in Llangollen, and is made possible by the City of Gold Coast, Bendigo Bank, Sea FM, and Southern Cross Ten. For further details, visit www.goldcoasteisteddfod.com.au.
