getting there

Arriving by Air

• Ballina Byron Gateway Airport is the closest option—just a 15-minute drive from the venue.

• Gold Coast Airport (Coolangatta) is around a 1-hour drive away.
   

Transfers

While there won’t be a dedicated Forum shuttle from the airports, there are plenty of local transfer options and rideshare services (Uber, etc.) to get you to Lennox Head. Here are a few handy links:

• Byron Bay Transfers – Lennox Head

• Byron Bay Shuttle

• Byron Bay Express

• Ezy Transfers
  ⚠️ If you're flying into Gold Coast Airport, you may need to travel to Byron Bay first, then transfer from there to Lennox Head.

Forum Shuttle Bus

We’re planning a Forum shuttle to run between Lennox Head main street and the venue:

• Friday 17 October (afternoon)

• Sunday 19 October (afternoon / early evening)
   

There's also a lovely flat walking track starting from the intersection of Camp Drewe Rd and Pacific Parade next to the Lennox Head–Alstonville Surf Club near Reflections Holiday Park—it’s less than 1km (about 10 minutes on foot) and takes you straight to the venue. Perfect if you’re staying nearby!

More shuttle details will be shared closer to the event.
