SUMMARY:Broadbeach Beats
DESCRIPTION:Broadbeach Beats returns 8 August 2026 with a free\, family-friendly celebration of the Gold Coast’s creative community. \nFor one day\, Victoria Avenue transforms into a living\, breathing creative village\, where the sound of live music drifts between market stalls\, artists work in the open\, and every corner of the mall offers something new to discover. \nEmerging musicians and community performance groups take to the stage throughout the day alongside a curated market of handmade ceramics\, jewellery\, textiles\, prints\, candles\, and slow-made fashion. Painters and illustrators work live. Photographers share their prints. Boutique labels and independent designers tell the stories behind what they make\, and record labels\, zine sellers\, and instrument makers set up shop beside them. \nThere’s plenty for the youngest visitors too\, with free kids’ activities to keep the little ones happy while the rest of the family wanders\, listens\, and takes it all in. Grab a bite\, find a spot in the sun\, and settle in for an afternoon that feels less like an event and more like a community coming together. \nFIND OUT MORE

SUMMARY:Suncoast Talks: Guardrails & Grit Part II: The Algorithm Is Raising Our Kids
DESCRIPTION:The algorithm is raising our kids. It’s time we took that job back. \nAsk any parent on the Sunshine Coast what keeps them up at night\, and somewhere in the answer you’ll hear the word “phone”; Not the device itself\, but what’s coming through it. Hyper-sexualised content. Toxic influencers peddling warped scripts about what it means to be a man\, what a relationship should look like\, what consent even is. It’s not a future risk. It’s already shaping how our sons see themselves\, and how our daughters expect to be treated. \nThis isn’t a problem that stops at any one school gate. It’s a Sunshine Coast problem\, which is why the next Suncoast Talks event is open to every parent\, carer and school in the region. \n \nYouth advocate and educator Daniel Principe has spent years in the room with young people\, in every state and territory\, in schools of every kind\, watching this play out. In Guardrails & Grit Part II: The Algorithm Is Raising Our Kids\, Daniel dives into how algorithms are shaping our kids to help parents figure out how to take back control together. \nOpen to all Sunshine Coast parents\, carers\, educators and school communities.\nBookings are essential and seating is limited. \nLEARN MORE & REGISTER
