Gold Coast Accommodation for Magic Millions Raceday 2026
The thrill of the track, the glamour of the crowd—it’s time to mark your calendar!
The pinnacle of the Gold Coast’s luxurious Magic Millions Carnival, the Raceday is one of the richest in Australia. Held at the Gold Coast Turf Club in Bundall, the main event day is scheduled for Saturday, January 17, 2026. Expect an exhilarating day of elite racing, including the $3 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic and the $3 million Magic Millions 3YO Guineas, plus high-stakes fashion, celebrity spotting, and world-class entertainment on and off the track.
Novotel Surfers Paradise puts you right at the heart of the coastal action and offers supreme convenience for race day. We’re perfectly positioned in central Surfers Paradise, meaning you can easily catch the famous Magic Millions Barrier Draw on the beach earlier in the week! Also, you’re steps from dining, shopping, and the beach, ensuring a relaxing and entertaining stay once the last race is run.
