Sugar Republic’s wildly popular gob-smacking wonderland of art installations and grown-up play spaces (aka Instagrammers paradise) will bring its life-sized desserts, candies, ice-creams, lollies and your favourite nostalgic treats to Pacific Fair Shopping Centre for the month of July. The sugar-inspired concept will sprawl across not one, not two, but three (!) locations within the shopping centre, making it the biggest Sugar Republic pop-up yet! Friends, this will take you way back to your childhood – a time when your metabolism was high and all that mattered was what Wizz Fizz flavour you had and how long you could make your Gobstopper last.

Within Sugar Republic Gold Coast there’s Candyland, where you’ll find a giant sprinkles swimming pool, a human-sized gumball machine, a liquorice playroom, a confetti shower, free candy and a seemingly endless playground of sweet fun. Then, there’s The Resort, featuring a glorious bubblegum-pink ball pit, photo-worthy tropical backdrops and (our favourite part) free soft-serve with sprinkles! Finally, you can visit The Selfie Store where you’ll find neon art, balloon installations, a glam ‘mini mart’ feature, tinsel backdrops, 80s-inspired selfie spots and free fairy floss. Wow, so much sweet goodness in one place!

Tickets to the Sugar Republic Gold Coast experience, which runs from June 30 to July 28 at at Pacific Fair, can be booked online here. Be quick though, as this is absolutely sell-out material!
