Gold Coast Open House (GCOH) will return on 27 and 28 September 2025. The free, annual program opens the doors to some of the Gold Coast’s most iconic buildings, inviting locals to discover the city’s architectural heritage alongside newly-complete projects.
Last year’s lineup included the Warehouses by J.AR Office, which won an Award for Commercial Architecture at the Australian Institute of Architects 2024 National Architecture Awards. Winner of the Institute’s 2022 Queensland Architecture Awards, HOTA Gallery by ARM, and winner of the 2024 Gold Coast and Northern Rivers Chapter Regional Project of the Year Prize, Tallowwood Cabin by Fouché Architects, were also among the 2024 highlights.
Ahead of the September weekend, GCOH invites submissions from organisations and individuals, including building owners and custodians, architecture and design practices, urban and landscape designers and community groups who wish to communicate the importance of good design.
GCOH notes that community input helps them to curate a program that showcases the most intriguing and inspiring aspects of the Gold Coast’s built environment. Nominations can take the form of building submissions, or guided tour suggestions and pitches for panel discussions.
Expressions of interest can be made via the GCOH website until Monday 28 April.
