There’s a unique magic to Christmas on the Gold Coast. It’s not in the snow, but in the way the setting sun paints the sky, the warm air that carries the scent of salt and festive barbecues, and the fairy lights that seem to glow a little brighter against the darkening coastline. It’s a season of long, golden evenings, and this year, a new kind of Candlelight magic is flickering to life within the city.
