Revitalize and Relax: Free Fitness and Major Movie Premieres on the Gold Coast Today

Monday Wellness: Active & Healthy Program

Kickstart your week and shake off the Monday blues with the City of Gold Coast’s renowned Active & Healthy program. Today, Monday, 9 February 2026, residents and visitors can participate in several low-cost or free community fitness sessions designed for all ages and ability levels. In Robina, a 30-minute body toning class is scheduled, focusing on strength and flexibility using body weight and light resistance. For those closer to the northern end of the coast, a group fitness session at Labrador offers an all-over body workout to help improve cardio and balance. These sessions are a fantastic way to enjoy the Gold Coast’s outdoor lifestyle while connecting with the local community.

Cinematic Highlights at Pacific Fair

If you prefer a more relaxed indoor experience, today is a perfect day to catch the latest international film releases at Event Cinemas Pacific Fair. Following the excitement of the recent AACTA Festival, the big screen continues to shine with a diverse lineup. Film enthusiasts can catch the highly anticipated drama Marty Supreme, starring Timothée Chalamet, with multiple screenings throughout the morning and afternoon. Additionally, the thriller Shelter and the star-studded The Housemaid are also showing. Whether you are looking for a mid-morning escape or an evening outing, the Gold Coast’s premier cinema destination has a full schedule of sessions to choose from today.

Cultural Immersion at HOTA

While the major festivities of the AACTA Awards may have concluded over the weekend, HOTA (Home of the Arts) remains a vibrant cultural hub worth visiting this Monday. The HOTA Gallery is open to the public, offering a chance to explore a variety of contemporary Australian art and rotating exhibitions in a world-class facility. It is an ideal destination for those seeking a quiet space to reflect and appreciate local creativity. After browsing the galleries, you can enjoy a coffee at the lakeside cafe or take a peaceful stroll through the surrounding Evandale Parklands, making for a sophisticated and serene Monday afternoon.
