Get that first-class traveller feel with Gold Coast Airport’s multimillion-dollar transformation

But as our fine city continues to grow and more and more people are flocking to our sunny shores, it makes sense that our airport is flourishing. To mirror the natural beauty of the coast, Gold Coast Airport is undergoing a significant glow-up, welcoming delectable food offerings, thirst-quenching bars and the crown jewel – the domestic airport’s new world-class luxury shopping experience, Heinemann Australia. more

Luxe activewear label Cleo Harper launches new collection with Sweat trainer Kelsey Wells

Since its debut collection in 2016, the Gold Coast's luxe activewear brand Cleo Harper has sure been busy.

The Gold Coast’s luxe activewear label Cleo Harper opens a boutique in Burleigh Heads

With a background in design and the arts, Vanessa sought to fill the gap in the world of workout wear with something a little more feminine and refined. This was the genesis of Cleo Harper, which has gone on to amass a loyal legging-clad following of folk who cannot get enough of the Gold Coast-based brand. Fast-forward six years and countless collections, Cleo Harper has opened the doors to its first dedicated retail store in Burleigh Heads. more
