In a high-octane partnership that merges luxury with adrenaline, Supercars is thrilled to announce its latest collaboration with Marriott Bonvoy, the global travel program from Marriott International. The deal appoints JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa and Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort Gold Coast as the Official Hotel partners for the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500. This partnership not only enhances the experience for motorsport enthusiasts but also brings a taste of premium hospitality to one of Australia’s most iconic racing events.
A Match Made in Motorsport Heaven
Running from October 25-27, the streets of Surfers Paradise will once again roar to life with the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500, one of Queensland’s most highly anticipated annual sporting events. What sets this year apart is the luxurious touch Marriott Bonvoy is set to bring to the heart of the race, offering fans and corporate guests exclusive access to premium amenities and unforgettable experiences.
At the core of this collaboration is the introduction of the Marriott Bonvoy Lounge, strategically positioned within the legendary pit lane of the Surfers Paradise street circuit. Guests at the lounge will have front-row seats to the thrilling action, all while being treated to an array of top-tier services that only Marriott Bonvoy can deliver.
An Elevated Trackside Experience
Tracey Woodbry, Supercars General Manager – Corporate Experiences, couldn’t be more excited about the partnership, stating, “The Marriott Bonvoy Lounge will redefine the premium hospitality experience at the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500.” She emphasised how this collaboration aims to bring together the best of both worlds – high-speed motorsport and Marriott Bonvoy’s signature luxury.
The Marriott Bonvoy Lounge is designed to be more than just a viewing platform; it’s a full-fledged premium experience. Overlooking the world-famous Surfers Paradise track, the lounge offers unbeatable views of the race, free-flowing champagne, and expertly crafted cocktails. Guests will also have access to gourmet food courtesy of the Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort Gold Coast and JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa, two of the region’s top luxury destinations known for their culinary excellence.
Deb McDiarmid, Area Director of Marketing for Marriott International in Australia, New Zealand & Pacific, echoed this sentiment, adding, “This strategic partnership is a natural fit for Marriott Bonvoy. The JW Marriott Gold Coast Resort & Spa and Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort Gold Coast are proud to be part of this renowned event on the annual racing calendar, offering our guests an exceptional combination of luxury accommodation and thrilling race-day experiences.”
One of the most exciting aspects of this partnership is the collaboration between two of the Gold Coast’s finest dining establishments: Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort’s Pearls Bar and JW Marriott’s award-winning Citrique Restaurant. These culinary heavyweights will come together to craft a gourmet menu that matches the high-stakes excitement of the Boost Mobile Gold Coast 500. With a focus on local produce and innovative flavours, the menu promises to be a standout feature of the Marriott Bonvoy Lounge experience.
Whether you’re a die-hard motorsport fan or simply looking to enjoy a luxurious weekend on the Gold Coast, the Marriott Bonvoy Lounge promises to be the place to be, offering a taste of the high life alongside the adrenaline rush of Supercars racing.
