Gold Coast Business News - Feb 09

  Date Released: Sunday 1st February 2009
 

THE Gold Coast Turf Club is well-known as Australia’s busiest racecourse with racing every Saturday and over 700 horses training every morning.

But few probably realise the busy off-track activity that goes on in the function rooms of the Bundall racecourse seven days a week.

The host venue of the Conrad Jupiters Magic Millions carnival and four- time Gold Coast Business Excellence Awards winner for the Coast’s best Tourism, Leisure and Hospitality experience is also one of the Gold Coast’s premier venues for seminars, team building activities, exhibitions, corporate lunches, conferences and cocktail parties.

Catering for 50 to 1000 guests, the club also hosts school formals, training sessions, product launches, award nights, networking breakfasts and weddings.

Gold Coast Turf Club presents a range of unique corporate or private function options – a top-flight combination of fine dining in first class function rooms.

The facilities range from smaller rooms for intimate functions to The Dome which can cater for up to 1000 people.

Function organisers these days demand flexibility and the highest quality food and beverage, and those are things the Club can deliver seven days a week, 365 days of the year.

The Gold Coast Turf Club is happy to prepare packages for any occasion, including special menus, themeing, entertainment and much more.

As a bonus, the rooms also offer enviable views of the racetrack and the Surfers Paradise skyline and more than ample free on-site parking.

The Club’s staff are function professionals. They take care of everything and will meet any budget.

Gold Coast Turf Club is also the host venue for ‘make it-bake it-grow it’ Queensland Farmers’ Markets every Sunday.
The markets are extremely popular and a great way to pick up the weeks’ fresh fruit and vegetables straight from the farm.
The Turf Club’s function facilities are also constantly upgraded to provide the ultimate in patron comfort.
They are all air-conditioned, wheelchair-friendly and well appointed with bars and contemporary furnishings.
On the racing side of things, extensive improvements were made to the racetrack last year, including some re-cambering and re-turfing, replacement of the grandstand seating and upgrades to the jockey’s room and the stewards, medical and media areas.
A spacious new Director’s Lounge off the Saddling Enclosure has proved an instant hit with VIP club guests and connections of the winners who are invited to celebrate their victory.
The Club’s premier room, the Board Room, has recently been released to the public to hold functions of up to 200 guests. Located on Level 2 it has uninterrupted views of the track and Surfers Paradise skyline.
