MAYOR TOM TATE, GOLD COAST
Mayor's Welcome Message
Welcome to the spiritual home of the Shaw and Partners World Ocean Series and Shannon Eckstein Classic.
Over two magical days, the best ocean athletes come together to battle for supremacy, carrying their club flags with pride.
Securing the series for a further three years is a huge coup as we look to expand our city’s major events calendar.
Events like this unite and they excite. Hosting the 2026 Ocean Series here at Northcliffe confirms we are on the right track when it comes to attracting the very best sporting carnivals.
This year’s program includes the Surf Ironman Qualifying Series, Australian Surf Ski Series, First National Board Series, Australian Surf Swim Series, Australian Taplin Series and Australian Beach Flags Series – plenty of silverware to be shared across all clubs.
I encourage competitors, officials, sponsors and fans to stay on a little longer and enjoy everything we have to offer. From the beaches to theme parks, restaurants and retail precincts, it’s time to ‘Get Up and Gold Coast’.
Tom Tate
Mayor.
