Photographer: Mark Burgin © Gold Coast Tourism Corporation GOLD COAST CITY 2018 COMMONWEALTH GAMES – CANDIDATE CITY FILE PRIME MINISTER CANBERRA MESSAGE FROM PRIME MINISTER JULIA GILLARD GOLD COAST CITY’S BID FOR THE 2018 COMMONWEALTH GAMES On behalf of the Government and people of Australia, I am honoured to submit our nation’s Gold Coast City Candidature File for the 2018 Commonwealth Games. Australia has a long and proud association with the Commonwealth Games, having competed in every Games since they began in 1930 and hosted the Games four times. Our host city, Gold Coast City, is an iconic Australian cultural and tourism destination which attracts more than 10 million international and domestic visitors each year. Gold Coast City, in the state of Queensland, will deliver an exciting, safe and friendly event built on a solid base of economic, cultural and social commitment. The athletes will not only enjoy the magnificent natural beauty of Gold Coast City but superb facilities and venues. They will also be supported by thousands of volunteers and technical officials with a proven record in delivering world-class events. Most importantly, all levels of Government will work together in the knowledge that they represent a nation that embraces sport as an important part of our identity. The Commonwealth Games epitomise all that we treasure as a nation – multiculturalism, sportsmanship, community and a passion for excellence. The Australian people stand firmly behind our bid and look forward to welcoming the athletes of the Commonwealth to our shores. The Honourable Julia Gillard MP Prime Minister of Australia GOLD COAST CITY 2018 COMMONWEALTH GAMES – CANDIDATE CITY FILE MESSAGE FROM QUEENSLAND PREMIER ANNA BLIGH GOLD COAST CITY’S BID FOR THE 2018 COMMONWEALTH GAMES It is with great excitement and anticipation that we submit the Gold Coast City Candidature File for the 2018 Commonwealth Games. Our state has seen a transformation over the last 20 years. Queensland continues to be world renowned as a tourism destination but we are increasingly becoming known for our cultural development, our sporting prowess and particularly our ability to deliver international sporting events. The Queensland Government is wholly and enthusiastically supportive of the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Bid. We have made a financial commitment to ensure the development of infrastructure that will offer athletes superb conditions and inspire and motivate them to perform at their very best. A 2018 Commonwealth Games in the Gold Coast City will be a compact and efficient event with the majority of existing venues complemented by new structures, which will rise up less than 20 minutes drive from the proposed Athlete’s Village. A successful Gold Coast City Bid will ensure the Games continue to thrive in new markets, reach younger generations and uphold the Commonwealth Games Federation core values of ‘Humanity, Equality and Destiny’. I firmly believe that the Gold Coast City can provide the athletes, their friends and supporters and visitors from around the world with a whole of Games experience that they will remember fondly for the rest of their lives. We look forward to extending the warm hand of friendship, Queensland style.

  • History of the Commonwealth Games
    GAMES HISTORY INTRODUCTION In past centuries, the British Empire’s power and influence stretched all over the world. It started at the time of Elizabeth 1 when Sir Francis Drake and other explorers started to challenge the Portuguese and Spanish domination of the world. The modern Commonwealth was formed in 1949, with ‘British’ dropped from the name and with Logo of the Commonwealth many countries becoming independent, but Games Federation choosing to remain part of the group of nations called the Commonwealth. The first recorded Games between British Empire athletes were part of the celebrations for the Coronation of His Majesty King George V in 1911. The Games were called the 'Festival of Empire' and included Athletics, Boxing, Wrestling and Swimming events. At the 1928 Olympic Games in Amsterdam, the friendliness between the Empire athletes revived the idea of the Festival of Empire. Canadian, Bobby Robinson, called a meeting of British Empire sports representatives, who agreed to his proposal to hold the first Games in 1930 in Hamilton, Canada. From 1930 to 1950 the Games were called the British Empire Games, and until 1962 were called the British Empire and Commonwealth Games. From 1966 to 1974 they became the British Commonwealth Games and from 1978 onwards they have been known as the Commonwealth Games. HISTORY OF THE COMMONWEALTH GAMES 1930 British Empire Games Hamilton, Canada 16-23 August The first official Commonwealth Games, held in Hamilton, Canada in 1930 were called the British Empire Games. Competing Countries (11) Australia, Bermuda, British Guiana (now Guyana), Canada, England, Newfoundland (now part of Canada), New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Wales.

These were: a relationship between Wide Bay Water and Sunwater for water worker training and a preliminary arrangement between Wide Bay TAFE and Wide Bay Water to provide on-line training services to other Councils.

  • Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games: Implications for the Local Property Market
    The Melbourne 2006 Commonwealth Games: implications for the local property market Richard Reed* and Hao Wu (*contact author) Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning University of Melbourne Melbourne 3010 Victoria Australia Tel: +61 3 8344 8966 Fax: +61 3 8344 5532 Email: [email protected] Abstract for the 11th Annual Pacific Rim Real Estate Conference 23 - 27 January 2005 - Melbourne, Australia Keywords: Commonwealth games, major sporting event, infrastructure, property market, host city. Abstract: In 2006 Melbourne will host the 18th Commonwealth Games with Brisbane being the last Australian city to host this event over two decades ago in 1982. Melbourne has not held a major global sporting event since the 1956 Olympic Games, although the 2006 Commonwealth Games follows on from the successful 2000 Sydney Olympics. These sporting events have continued to grow from strength to strength, and have been assisted by Australia's close affiliation with sport and the widespread global media coverage. In a similar manner to other sporting events that Melbourne hosts, including the Australian Tennis Open, Formula One Grand Prix, Motorcycle Grand Prix, Melbourne Cup and Australian Football League, the city and its inhabitants are consumed by these events. The 2006 Commonwealth Games is certain to follow this trend. The task of hosting the Commonwealth Games is enormous, although actively pursued in a fierce bidding process by competing cities. The benefits are undisputed and include an influx of visitors to the host city, an opportunity to enhance or rebuild infrastructure such as transport, plus the worldwide focus on the host city before and during the event.
