Pacific Airshow Gold Coast spreads its wings wider for 2024

Glenn Collins, whose Pitts Special plane crashed during a four-aircraft display with the SkyAces Formation Aerobatic Team last Friday, suffered severe injuries and was airlifted to The Alfred Hospital in Melbourne.

The airshow, held over the weekend, achieved 100 per cent occupancy throughout Surfers Paradise and over 92 per cent occupancy across the Gold Coast, according to figures from Experience Gold Coast.

The three-day event will run from 15 to 17 August in Surfers Paradise, and will this year include a new STEM Zone for younger attendees alongside the aerial displays and ground entertainment.
