Elsewhere, Surfers Paradise

Tucked away in the heart of Surfers Paradise, up two flights of now-iconic stairs, nestles an unlikely space called elsewhere. Since 2003, this little family owned venue has bloomed into a cultural institution that prides itself on delivering an unrivalled platform for local artists, presenting acts of international infamy and being a springboard for those of tomorrow. Many national nominations for excellence have cemented elsewhere’s place in the industry landscape and it is widely regarded by its peers as a lighthouse venue. Against the odds, it has become much more than it’s four walls and is a space held dear by a loyal and incredibly generous audience for its intimacy and inclusive ethos, with many loved colourful characters and regulars. elsewhere is a place designed to protect the rights to a safe night out for any person of any persuasion, with excellence in service and sound. Focused on space and comfort, with a beloved flashing dancefloor and retro-industrial detailing, it is a feast of conversation and a celebration of the arts, music and escapism. A sea of culture, not just another night out.
