Monster Machinery Day to rile up Gold Coast residents

There's one very important question you've got to ask yourself this week: Have I ever wanted to use a digger? If the answer is yes then chances are you're the type of person who'll want to keep reading on. And even if the answer is no, you might have a few tykes who'd answer in the affirmative. 

Either way, if you happen to own a piece of Gold Coast real estate, you'd be hard pressed to miss out on this year's Monster Machinery Day on 1 June. The annual event, currently in its 11th year, promises to be a great day out for the entire family – and a good reminder of what makes living in the Gold Coast area a such fun.

The event, held in Mitchell Park, will be an exhibit of the machines and vehicles the City of Gold Coast uses for its essential services, such as excavators, graders, loaders, road sweepers and more. There'll be demonstrations, food stalls, rides and giveaways – and keep that inner child under control, because you might just get to use some yourself. 

It's events like Monster Machinery Day which are the reason houses for sale on the Gold Coast are disappearing so fast. Get in on the action while they're still out there.
