Seven News Gold Coast (stylized as 7NEWS Gold Coast) is a weeknight, local news bulletin of the Seven Network. It is screened on the Gold Coast, Queensland relay of Channel Seven from Brisbane. The bulletin first aired in 1996.
Seven News Gold Coast is presented from Seven's studios at Surfers Paradise, also located in the city.
The bulletin is anchored by Steve Titmus (father of swimmer Ariarne Titmus) and Amanda Abate[1] and airs at 5:30pm before Seven News Queensland at 6pm.
Seven News Gold Coast is presented by Steve Titmus and Amanda Abate (Monday-Friday), Sally Pearson presents sport and weather is presented by meteorologist Tony Auden (Monday) and Paul Burt (Tuesday-Friday), and coastal, beaches and fishing reports from Coastal Expert Paul Burt on a Thursday and Friday.
The bulletin airs on weeknights at 5.30pm on BTQ-7's Gold Coast relay transmitters, ahead of the main 6pm news from Brisbane, placing it in direct competition with rival Nine Gold Coast News. The bulletin does not air when Australian Test cricket matches are scheduled.
On 4 July 2016, a new local bulletin for the Gold Coast was introduced, produced and broadcast live from Seven's Surfers Paradise studio with presenter Rod Young being closer to his home on the Gold Coast, instead of travelling to and from Brisbane.
From its launch, weekend bulletins were also produced, which made Seven the only network to produce local Gold Coast bulletins seven days a week. However, weekend bulletins were axed in November 2017, citing cost-cutting measures. In February 2018, Amanda (who formerly presented the axed weekend edition) joined Rod in presenting the weeknight local bulletin as well as reading sport.
In July 2019, after three years on air, Seven News Gold Coast officially became the number one news bulletin on the Gold Coast, winning twenty-one weeks to the rival Nine Gold Coast News' one week.[2] In July 2021, Rod Young announced his retirement from reading television news. [3][4]He presented his final Seven Gold Coast News bulletin on July 22 2021.
In February 2022, Sally Pearson was appointed sport presenter for the bulletin.[5]
Fill in presenters include Bianca Stone (news), and Tamra Bow and Liz Cantor (weather).
