Ripple is happening on the Gold Coast, which, conveniently, is one of the easiest places in Australia to get to.

You can fly direct into Gold Coast Airport (OOL), which is about 15 minutes from Burleigh Heads and 20 minutes from the venue.

If you’re coming from interstate, there are frequent direct flights from most major cities.

If you’re driving, it’s an easy run from Brisbane, just over an hour (depending on traffic.

Once you’re here, everything is close. No long commutes. No complicated logistics. Just get in, settle, and you’re good.

Ripple is being held at Miami Marketta, a laneway-style, open-air venue that feels more like a night market than a conference centre.

Expect:

- Warehouse meets festival energy

- Food stalls, bars, live music

- Indoor/outdoor spaces that actually let you move and breathe

It’s about 15–20 minutes from Gold Coast Airport and an easy Uber from most coastal suburbs.

This is very intentional.

Ripple isn’t a sit-in-a-ballroom-and-watch-PowerPoints kind of event. The space is part of the experience, casual, social, a bit messy in the best way.

We recommend staying around Burleigh Heads.

It’s about 10 minutes from the venue and, honestly, it’s the best part of the Gold Coast.

Think:

- Beach walks in the morning

-Good coffee (everywhere)

- Small bars, great restaurants

- Slightly slower, local feel, not tourist chaos

We’ve lined up a special deal for Ripple attendees, so you don’t have to fall down a Booking.com rabbit hole.

Email tickets@ripplefestival.au and we’ll hook you up.

You’re not just flying in for an event and leaving. You’re stepping into a place that actually gives you space to think, talk, and reset a bit.
