While you might not be able to make the game in person, the next best thing is rugging up in your state colours and watching the action amongst a sea of blue and maroon on The Lawn at Garden Kitchen & Bar. Pull up a seat and watch each game as it is broadcast live on the massive outdoor screen. When you’re not watching the footy, keep the good vibes flowing and enjoy commentary and giveaways from guest MCs, plus free live entertainment. All that cheering will undoubtedly work up a mean appetite, which you can happily satisfy with the hero chargrilled Angus beef burger (Angus beef patty, cheese, salad, tomato relish and pickles on a milk bun) paired well with signature chips and a XXXX Gold schooner. Whether you choose to bring your family or friends, you can secure your very own picnic table ahead of time to ensure you’ve got a prime position to take in the action. The $200 pre-payment for your picnic table can then be used for drinks and delicious bites, but make sure you book ASAP as tables are limited!

Alternatively, if you’re keen to experience the high-energy atmosphere indoors where it’s a little warmer, then scoot over to Sports Bar and enjoy the game live, loud and across multiple large screens. Rally on the Maroons as you dig in to a Queensland pizza topped with bacon, pineapple, cheese and BBQ sauce with XXXX.

Head to The Star Gold Coast website for more information and prepare yourself for a nail-biting final game.
