The XXI Commonwealth Games was the first large-scale multi-sport spectacle to be hosted in Australia for over a decade and the first in a regional city. GC2018 was our once-in-a-generation opportunity to embrace the excitement, enthusiasm and community interest in the Commonwealth Games. But the Commonwealth Games was about more than a world-class sporting competition. Through the Games, the Commonwealth Games Federation aimed to: “... attract and build on public, private and social partnerships that widely benefit Commonwealth athletes, sports and communities.” GC2018 Partners [Australian Government, Queensland Government, City of Gold Coast (City) and the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Corporation (GOLDOC)] worked together to ensure the Gold Coast, Queensland and Australia were set to experience an economic and social uplift through activities such as: • venue and infrastructure development • precinct improvements around key venues • improved skills and opportunities for business • international competition for our Australian athletes • increased tourism and event attraction • community celebrations.
