Marina Mirage Shopping On The Gold Coast

At Marina Mirage shopping is a pleasure not a chore!

Shopping at Marina Mirage started to change in 2008 when a major redevelopment was undertaken. The centre is now completely undercover. Previously the centre section was open to the elements. There has been a change in the mix of shops with even more emphasis on international designer brand names.

The Marina Mirage Experience

During 2008 and 2009 Marina Mirage underwent major refurbishments which caused a lot of disruption and a few changes to the tenancies.

The new Marina Mirage is all about the big names. International brands and the really well known local Australian brands are on the menu these days. Some of the local boutiques you may have seen in visits past have had to move on to other venues, pressured by the big rents.

Some of the brands you can find at Marina Mirage Shopping Centre include:

• Calvin Klein
  Carla Zampatti
  Charlie Brown
  French Connection
  George Gross Harry Who
  Guess by Marciano
  Hermes
  Lisa Ho
  Tommy Hilfiger

If you are visiting to purchase, make sure you bank balance and credit cards are ready for the assault. This is definitely NOT where you will find bargains. This is full price, full service end of town.

The shops are generally open from 10am to 6pm. The restaurants and some of the shops stay open later, but you need to check that with individual shops.

Marina Mirage Farmers Markets

Marina Mirage hosts the Marina Mirage Farmers markets on the 1st, 3rd and 5th Saturdays of each month. The markets run from 7am to 12 noon on these Saturdays. You will find the stall set up in the outside areas and in the central concourse areas on the ground floor.

Marina Mirage Farmers Market features local fresh and handmade produce. It is a local gourmet delight!

The Marina Mirage shopping experience is certainly unique on the Gold Coast.

Marina Mirage Facilities

As well as the shopping centre and fabulous cafes and restaurants, there is a full marina with both commercial and private boats. Many of the Gold Coast boat tours and trips are based in this marina including the Tall Ship cruises and some of the Gold Coast whale watching tour operators.
