As we finalise our exclusive list of buildings, places and interesting tours for 2021, we will reveal all you can see and do along with the untold stories of the making of our city.

2025 PROGRAm – GOLD COAST OPEN HOUSE

Gold Coast Open House (GCOH) returns for 2025, offering an exciting weekend of free, immersive experiences across the city on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 September. Whether you’re an architecture enthusiast, a design lover, or simply curious about the stories behind the spaces that define our city, GCOH 2025 has something for everyone.

This city-wide celebration opens the doors to a diverse range of architectural gems—ranging from iconic historic homes to cutting-edge contemporary buildings. Explore hidden gems, innovative infrastructure, and community spaces that shape the Gold Coast’s culture and identity.

Join us for an unforgettable lineup of events, including Living Legacies: Gold Coast Modernism Revisited—a full day of insightful panel discussions at Griffith University, where thought leaders and experts explore the future of urban spaces. Don’t miss Architect for a Day, offering students a unique hands-on experience in the world of architecture, or grab your sketchbook and immerse yourself with the Urban Sketchers, capturing the essence of the city.

Ahead of the weekend, GCOH is also thrilled to partner with the SWELL Sculpture Festival for a special fundraising event that celebrates art, architecture, and community. This unforgettable evening will bring together creatives and supporters, all in support of keeping Gold Coast Open House a free and accessible event for years to come.
