Cold Hawaiian? Hard pass. Real pizza, cold drinks and your people at Fire Baby Southport – Friday, June 12, 5:30pm.

By this point in the year, everyone’s running on caffeine, your LinkedIn feed is somehow more unhinged than usual and “we should catch up soon” has become everyone’s favourite lie.

So consider this your official excuse to clock off early, put the laptop away and socialise somewhere that isn’t your office kitchen.

Because, we’ve all been there…. the dreaded office “pizza party”. Cold Hawaiian, warm Coke Zero and HR trying to make everyone do a team-building quiz.

This is not that.

YP’s next event is officially live and this one is all about loosening up, catching up and spending a Friday night with good people after a long week. Think delicious pizza, drinks, good conversations and a room full of young professionals who are all figuring it out together.

Join us for our next Friday knockoff event, The Office Pizza Party, at Fire Baby Southport on Friday June 12 from 5:30pm onwards.

For $49 you’re sorted – welcome drink in hand the moment you walk in, plus Fire Baby’s wood-fired pizzas flowing all night from the pizza stations. No cold Hawaiian in sight.

Whether you’ve been part of the YP community for years or you’ve been quietly stalking our events from afar waiting for the right one to jump into, this is your moment.

It’s the perfect mid-year reset. A chance to reconnect with familiar faces, meet some new ones and celebrate surviving the first half of the year without throwing your laptop into the ocean. Tickets are officially live and if our last few events are anything to go by, they won’t hang around for long.

Get yours now!

Join us from 12:30pm to 3:30pm on Friday 1 May 2026 at the vibrant Miami Marketta to spend an afternoon with the Gold Coast’s brightest grassroots entrepreneurs, hearing their stories, learning from their wins and stumbles, and discovering why they chose to grow their businesses right here at home.

Tickets for the YP Gold Coast’s 10th Annual Entrepreneurs Forum Presented by Community Bank Paradise Point, Bendigo Bank are on sale now. Our most anticipated event of the year

This year’s forum will bring together founders who started here, built something meaningful, and decided the Gold Coast was just too good to leave. Curious how they did it? You’ll hear about the moments that made them double down instead of calling it quits (because let’s be honest, who hasn’t had a “why did I start this?” moment?).

Speakers

Ed Hatcher, Founder of Alfred's Apartment

Ed Hatcher

What started as a small menswear store on the Gold Coast Highway in Mermaid Beach has grown into one of the Coast’s most iconic brands, and Ed has been at the helm for the past seven years. Built on the idea of creating quality pieces for people living between the surf and the city, Alfred’s has become more than just a store. It is a space, a community, and a brand that people genuinely want to be part of.

Today, their Nobby Beach space brings together a flagship clothing line, a barber, and a café under one roof. It’s part retail, part lifestyle, and very on brand for the Gold Coast.

Ed’s story is exactly what this year’s forum is all about. Grassroots founders who started here, built something meaningful, and proved you don’t need to pack up and move to Sydney, Melbourne, or head overseas to create a brand that resonates. 

Layla Morris, Founder of Dr. Diamond

Layla Morris, Founder Of Dr. Diamond
Since launching, Dr. Diamond has seen rapid momentum, including a defining viral moment after Layla handed a Dr. Diamond pen to none other than Hailey Bieber. The moment sent the brand into global conversation almost overnight. It has since been featured organically across podcasts and media, and is now in the hands of over 20,000 customers worldwide.
 
Layla is known for her outgoing nature and instinctive, customer-first approach, building a brand where community sits at the centre and product, content, and culture all move as one. Alongside this, she’s built a strong personal brand through her “52 Walks with 52 Founders” series, connecting with a new founder each week and sharing those conversations to inspire others along the way.
 
Today, she’s scaling Dr. Diamond globally, with a clear ambition to define the category.

Brodie Green, Founder of Moustache and Bouy

Brodie Green, Founder Of Moustache And Bouy

Brodie is the name behind some of the Gold Coast’s most recognisable hospitality venues, first making his mark with Seadog, a Burleigh Heads café that began as a small hole-in-the-wall concept and grew into an award-winning local favourite. He later expanded his portfolio with Buoy at The Oxley precinct before launching Moustache, a venue designed to seamlessly transition from daytime coffee culture into evening wine service.

Known for his ability to build venues that are both commercially disciplined and culturally relevant, Brodie has developed a reputation for creating concepts that balance design, experience, and performance. He’s used his platforms to spark conversation and drive change, taking a considered approach to hospitality, viewing it not only as a commercial venture but also as a platform for broader cultural impact.

Thor Berg, CEO and Co-Founder of Bloody Good Tests

Thor Berg, Ceo And Co Founder Of Bloody Good Tests
If you’ve ever put off getting a blood test because it felt like too much effort, Thor’s probably already solved that problem. Bloody Good Tests is a fast-growing health-tech company changing the way Australians access and understand their health data, making everything from blood tests to DNA and gut health analysis more accessible, convenient, and actually easy to understand.
 
Through a seamless direct-to-consumer platform, users can access instant online referrals, choose from more than 4,000 collection centres nationwide, or even have a mobile service come straight to their home, office, or gym. Results are delivered through a simple online app that breaks down complex health data into clear, everyday insights. No confusing jargon, no chasing results, no excuses.

For $175pp, your ticket gets you a cocktail on arrival, a three-hour beverage package, and a three-course menu that will keep your appetite and ambition fueled while you soak up all the entrepreneurial insight.

Moderating the panel is the ever-insightful journalist and television presenter Kendall Gilding. She’ll be guiding the conversation with four incredible local founders, whose names will be revealed in the coming weeks….so keep your eyes peeled!

And just a friendly reminder: this event usually sells out and once tickets are gone, they’re gone. So don’t leave it until the last-minute sliding into our DM’s hoping for a miracle ticket. We’d love to help, but even we can’t work that kind of magic.

So, what are you waiting for? Grab your tickets now, secure your spot, and join a room full of Gold Coast young professionals ready to be inspired, laugh, learn, and celebrate the grit, creativity, and courage of our local entrepreneurs.

When your social cup runs low, it’s time for The Refill – YP Gold Coast’s first cocktail event of the year.

We’ve officially survived January. After months of staring at screens, endless Teams calls, and pretending your inbox didn’t just implode, it’s probably time to refill your cup….literally and figuratively.

On Friday 20 February from 5:30pm, we’re taking over Six-Tricks Distilling Co. in Mermaid Beach for The Refill, our first Friday knock-off event of 2026!

This is your chance to catch up with familiar faces, meet some new ones, and spend a night laughing too loud without the office Karen rolling their eyes at you. Think of it as pressing pause on the chaos, topping up your social energy, and reminding yourself that Fridays are for more than just surviving.

For just $40 pp (plus booking fee), you’ll get a gin and tonic on arrival to kick off the night, a complimentary beer, wine or spirit to keep things flowing, and roving Mexican-style canapes. Because nothing brings people together like food you don’t have to cook and drinks that taste like heaven.

To top it off, you’ll also go into the draw for a lucky door prize (a cocktail masterclass for yourself and three friends valued at over $300!) and have the chance to get a sneak peek behind the scenes of Six-Tricks Distilling Co, so you can finally answer those “how do they actually make gin?” questions

If you’ve been missing those YP Friday vibes, this is your chance to get them back. The Refill is the perfect end to your week, a reminder that good vibes and great company are just as important as surviving your inbox, and probably way more fun.

Tickets are limited and going fast. With only two weeks to go, don’t risk being the one hearing about it from Instagram stories while eating your dinner alone.

Secure your spot, bring your banter and get ready for a night where the vibes are high, the laughs are loud and the memories are actually worth talking about on Monday.

Will we see you there?

YP’s Biggest Event Is Back! Tickets Now On Sale for the YP Gold Coast Annual Forum 2025

Our biggest and most anticipated event is officially back, and this year it comes with a glow-up. Meet the newly named YP Gold Coast Annual Forum, formerly known as City Leaders Forum, returning on Friday 17 October at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre, proudly presented by Morgans Gold Coast.

This year we are tackling a theme that hits close to home and even closer to the hip pocket:

The Future We Can Afford.

Let’s be honest, it is the question everyone is quietly (or not so quietly) asking right now. Can the Gold Coast keep up its momentum without leaving too many people behind? What will our economy look like in five, ten or twenty years? And most importantly, can we afford to live, work and thrive here while still keeping that unmistakable Gold Coast lifestyle?

This year we are going big on the conversations that matter. Think housing affordability and property outlook, investment and the industries driving us forward – the big economic picture, not just the small talk. Our panel of heavy-hitting speakers, to be revealed in the weeks to come, will unpack the trends, challenge the status quo and maybe even ruffle a few feathers along the way.

You will laugh, you will learn, and…you will probably want to order another wine. 

Keynote Speaker

Bernard Salt

Bernard Salt is one of Australia’s sharpest social commentators. He’s written six best-selling books, hosted TV shows and podcasts, and founded The Demographics Group to help businesses make sense of demographic, social, and property trends.

He’s the man who spotted the “Goat’s Cheese Curtain,” predicted cultural shifts long before they became mainstream, and yes, he’s also the reason the phrase “Smashed Avo” is famous worldwide.

With a career that spans over 20 years as a columnist for The Australian and stints advising global advisory firms, Bernard is one of the country’s most sought-after speakers and this is your chance to see him in action.

And yes, there will be official drinks afterwards because YP never leaves you hanging.

Our City Leaders events have consistently drawn high demand – and with this being our first official Annual Forum, we expect it to be no different. So, grab your ticket, rally your colleagues, and join us as we map out the future we can afford.

This is where the future of the Gold Coast will be candidly talked about, debated and maybe even reimagined. The only question left is: will you be part of it?

It was shaping up to be one of our most anticipated events yet. Tickets flew out the door faster than your money on payday, the guest speaker was locked, the drinks were chilling – and then Cyclone Alfred decided to rain (quite literally) on our parade.

But guess what? Not even a cyclone can cancel our money moves.

That’s right, Money Talks is officially back on, and YP Gold Coast, alongside Community Bank Paradise Point, Bendigo Bank, is ready to deliver the economic evening we almost had earlier this year. New date, same top-tier speaker, same stunning venue, same everything – minus the natural disaster.

Just a quick note: If you purchased a ticket to the original event, your payment was automatically refunded following the postponement. So, you’ll need to grab a new ticket to secure your spot this time around.

Join us on Tuesday 5 August at 5:15pm at HOTA’s Panorama Room for an unmissable night of sharp financial insights and economic predictions from David Robertson, Chief Economist at Bendigo Bank.

If you’re wondering where interest rates are headed for the remainder of 2025, what global market trends are about to rock your bottom line, or whether you can keep your Uber Eats habit and save for a house, this is the guy with answers.

David’s not your average economist. With more than 23 years at Bendigo Bank and a career that spans CBA, State Bank of NSW and First Chicago, he’s got the knowledge, experience and delivery style that makes complex economic trends easy to understand and genuinely interesting. You’ll walk away not only smarter, but slightly more smug the next time someone brings up the RBA at Friday night drinks.

Oh, and in case you missed it – this exact event completely sold-out earlier this year in less than two weeks! So if you want in, we strongly suggest grabbing your $45 early bird ticket now. Your ticket includes a welcome drink on arrival, delicious roving canapés, the chance to rub shoulders with other clever young professionals.

Cancel your Tuesday night couch plans, dust off your smart-casual best, and get ready for a night of money talk that doesn’t feel like hard work. The countdown is officially on and this time, Alfred’s not invited.

Hope to see you there!
