Gold Coast Schoolies Info

Information for Gold Coast Schoolies including Byron Bay

The formal Gold Coast Schoolies event is very well organized with activities and entertainment for school leavers ready to celebrate.

Schoolies in Queensland is held in late November each year, directly after the Queensland school leavers last official day of school. Check latest Schoolies dates for Gold Coast, Queensland and other states.

All Schoolies must be registered to enter these Gold Coast events and the organizers and Police are understandably very strict about this.

I have listed the dates below of the official schoolies festival in Gold Coast, but there seems to be confusion as to when it actually ends in the Gold Coast.

Some schoolies attend after the official week and will be disappointed with no formal events for them. Check the dates below.

Byron Bay, in northern NSW is increasing in popularity with schoolies, however there is not the same level of entertainment.

If you are wondering what schoolies is, then think Miami, think Spring Break!
