Getting to People First Stadium by Public Transport

Carrara sits inland on the Gold Coast, away from the train line, so the simplest way in on event days is the shuttle bus. Services run to the stadium from Nerang station, from Broadbeach South on the G:link tram, and from a park n ride, before and after the event. They set down and collect close to the ground.

Nerang is the nearest station, on the Gold Coast line, but it is about a 25-minute walk from the stadium, so most people take the shuttle from there instead. From the coast strip you can ride the G:link tram to Broadbeach South and pick up the shuttle. From Brisbane, take the Gold Coast line to Nerang and connect.

For events your ticket includes free travel on the G:link tram, Queensland Rail services and Surfside buses, from about four hours before the event to four hours after. Show your ticket as you board, and the whole trip in and out can be free.

Carrara has parking, but the roads around the stadium funnel into a slow crawl after a big crowd leaves at once. The shuttle buses run on their own loops to the train and tram, so you avoid the worst of the traffic and have nothing to park.

After the final siren, head for the shuttle back to Nerang station or Broadbeach South for the train or tram home. Check the planner for the next service, and for late games our last train home guide covers the after-dark timetable.
