Small business rally together for Starlight and raise $50,000!

A myriad of small-to-medium businesses across the country joined forces and participated in an inspiring national campaign to support 25 years of the Starlight Children’s Foundation - Raising over $50,000 for the charity!

Hundreds of businesses showcased a unique experience, special deal or exclusive offer on group buying website www.LivingSocial.com/Australia and $2 from each deal sold was donated by LivingSocial, (not the deal’s earnings) to the Starlight Children’s Foundation.

Surfers Paradise business, Infinity Attraction, sold more than 1660 deals and raised $3320 for the Starlight Children’s Foundation. This business, managed by Tane Thompson, raised the most funds of all Queensland businesses for the Starlight initiative with a stand-out deal of over 50 per cent off admission rates.

Louise Baxter, CEO of the Starlight Children’s Foundation welcomed the support from LivingSocial and their merchants at a special presentation breakfast hosted at Randwick Children’s Hospital’s Starlight Express Room.

“The support of the businesses such as Infinity Attractions and the customers who purchased their specially created Starlight offer will go a long way to help us continue our work. Last year Starlight programs supported over 129,000 children in hospitals across Australia. Without donations like this, we would not be able to deliver our vital programs that support the wellbeing and resilience of Australia’s seriously ill children and their families seven days per week. We thank all who participated for their generosity during our 25th year,” said Louise.

Adam Rigby, CEO of LivingSocial, said, “The response from Australian small business and our members to joining our campaign was exceptional. By coming together we created a national network of support to celebrate the important work of the Starlight Children’s Foundation. We want to thank Infinity Attractions for their exceptional deal that was so integral to the success of the campaign.”

The Starlight deals were promoted both locally, through LivingSocial’s network of 35 hyper-local markets, and nationally to more than 2.5 million people via www.livingsocial.com and social media channels - Facebook and Twitter.

Starlight Children’s Foundation is one of Australia’s most trusted charities. Its programs are considered by health professionals as 'integral' to the total paediatric care of seriously ill children across Australia. Starlight is currently the only children’s charity with a permanent presence in every major paediatric hospital in Australia, delivering programs seven days a week. Starlight’s innovative programs are based on the World Health Organisation's social model of health to support wellbeing and resilience.

Infinity Gold Coast and TripAdvisor Reviews

Those of you that have experienced the Gold Coast and the surfers paradise attractions will know you can't step past Infinity Surfers Paradise. Check out some of our recent visitors to the infinity maze and what they thought.

“Not what you'd expect”

Reviewed January 18, 2012 from Joyouss from Perth, Visited October 2011
It feels like an incredible never-ending world of special effects and magical lights. Lots of fun for all ages.
“Fabulous”
Reviewed September 3, 2011 from keeptravelling Hobart, Visited February 2011
Visited Infinity with 4 older teenagers and had expectations of an overpriced, boring waste of an hour - how wrong I was. I was mesmerised from the first 'room' and had an absolute ball, laughing at myself and all the members of our group.
It is hard to describe Infinity - suffice to say, it is a unique experience and one that should not be missed!
“Unique, exciting, fun, trippy, at times profound and spiritual”

Reviewed May 14, 2012 from Tulinfirenze Perth western Australia, Visited May 2011
If you are visiting the Gold Coast you simply owe it to yourself to come to this one of a kind attraction!

I had read the reviews before my holiday and was VERY MUCH looking forward to it! Because of Infinity's unique nature it can be hard to describe it, hence my partner's initial reticence based on my lame attempt, garnered from the aforementioned reviews. Once we arrived and entered however, he changed his mind instantly!

As for my review, all I can say is what Infinity was for US. We were lucky enough to visit at a quiet time in the evening and thus had the place pretty much to ourselves. What we found was a series of rooms (not so much a "maze" as some people have called it since each room flows on from the next, although it may take a minute or so to find the concealed door) each themed to different effect using mirrors, lights, lasers, music, sound effects, different surfaces, props, altered scales and various levels of illumination. Our favourites included the room which makes you feel like you are inside a giant computer (I kept thinking, "This is what Tron must feel like!")With strings of "electrons" flashing all around you. The other was the immediately following "space" room where the effect is of being completely surrounded by stars in the blackness of night. I just wanted to sit down in the middle of the floor and imagine myself floating in space with nothing else around me. Simply BREATHTAKING! Our only complaint with this room was that the new agey music was, at times a bit too loud. We theorized that this must be to drown out the sounds of the previous corridor with its "alien" theme.

The place is just INCREDIBLE and as you are drawn further in your senses of play and adventure are aroused and excited. As a person who works with elderly people with dementia I am keenly aware of the need for adults to play. I am also aware of the effects of various sensory stimuli and what this can do for the mind through the use of "snoezelen rooms". Infinity is just a much larger and more elaborate version of this proven technique and as such, I can say its effect was palpable, exciting and eminently successful - so much so that we returned a few nights later to enjoy it, alone, all over again! I would HEARTILY recommend this incredible attraction to people of all ages with a slight caveat for children younger than, say, eight or children with phobias to do with darkness or claustrophobia.

As you can see it is a must on your Gold Coast itinerary. Find us on Facebook for posted special discounts and all the latest news for Surfers Paradise and the gold coast theme parks

Gold Coast Hospital Foundation Masquerade Ball

2012-04-23T19:18:00.002-07:00

One of our main foundations Infinity Attraction Surfers Paradise supports is the Gold Coast Hospital Foundation.

The Gold Coast Hospital Foundation is a community based organisation that was established to raise funds for health services and research for the Gold Coast Health Service District.

Gold Coast Hospital Foundation will become the “Charity of Choice” among all communities on the Gold Coast of Queensland.

In achieving its Mission and Vision, Gold Coast Hospital Foundation will develop collaborative fundraising mechanisms and activities to grow the base of health and medical research funding within the whole Gold Coast communities while improving the visibility and community engagement in promoting a culture of philanthropic giving among our staff and the communities it serves.

These aspirations will be achieved within the Gold Coast Health Service District through the following objectives:

To increase the volume and diversity of sources of funds raised in support of the Gold Coast Health Services District through the ethical, accountable and transparent fundraising activities;

Supporting good health and excellence in patient care;
Providing state of the art equipment and facilities;
Encouraging and supporting research;
Promoting and supporting education programs;
Active involvement in health promotion;
Encouraging community understanding of and participation in health programs.

If you would like to support them, the Annual Masquerade Ball is on Friday 25th May,2012

The Foundation's Gala is to be held in the exquisite Princeton Room at Bond University.
The proceeds from the evening will be directed towards the children facilities at both Robina and Southport Hospital sites.

This wonderful event will commence with cocktails and canapes under the stars in the Atrium at 6.45 pm for 7.00 pm with the amazing young musicians who make up the Somerset College Senior String Quartet.
The main event will commence at 7.30 pm promptly. So, don't be late or you may miss a key activity (maybe the entree).
The theme of the evening will be Masquerade and we encourage all guests to get into the spirit of the theme. The Foundation has been able to negotiate a 15% discount off purchases of masks from The Hat Store which can be found on level 3 at Robina Shopping Town.

There will be an auction during the evening with opportunities within everyone's reach.
One lucky guest will be leaving the evening with a very special mystery prize that will be announced during the evening. If you win you may need to have sea legs; or you may suddenly become a vintage red wine connoisseur. Keep an ear to the ground as these updates continue.
Our entertainment for the evening will be provided by local covers band Kickstart who will cater for all tastes and abilities and, yes, there will be dancing.
Entree tickets will be provided for attending. Each card will be numbered and your guests are encouraged to ensure they bring them along on the night. Not only will they be confirmation of their placement at the event but they also may be useful when we conduct our lucky door prize.

QLD Flood Donations - Infinity Surfers Paradise

2011-01-18T17:43:00.000-08:00

We have all seen the devastation caused by the flood disaster throughout QLD and especially close to home in South East Queensland. Everyone seems to be trying to do what they can to help those affected. The most important thing all affected require will be cash. The Premier's Flood Appeal is now up over 103 milllion dollars, but obviously more is required.

Infinity Surfers Paradise has made a substantial donation to date and continue to raise money through donations at the attraction and through the Black Hole Wishing Well. We also will be providing admission tickets to special causes throughout the region to help those affected by this disaster to help rebuild their lives with a bit of fun.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY INFINITY ATTRACTION

We had a great afternoon celebrating our birthday this year out the front of Infinity Attraction in the Chevron Renaissance Centre, Surfers Paradise. They say that any excuse for cake is a good excuse and it was well worth it! Our awesome INFINITY CREW and customers enjoyed a nice slice of chocolate sponge for their afternoon tea.

I would like to take this opportunity to send out a big thank you to our wonderful team at Infinity. We have an exceptional INFINITY CREW and appreciate their continued hard work and wonderful personalities every day.

Manager Katrina Conyard doing the honours of cutting the CAKE!
Thanks for all your hard work Kat. We love you.

Bring the whole family this School Holidays to the Gold Coast’s 21st Century Attraction - INFINITY

2010-09-26T22:12:00.000-07:00

A multi-million dollar ‘funhouse of the future’, INFINITY ATTRACTION heralds a new era in truly unique, interactive experiences and since its opening in 2000 hundreds of thousands of people of all ages have taken the unforgettable journey.

Located in the heart of Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast, Queensland and nestled within popular shopping and dining precinct Chevron Renaissance Shopping Centre, INFINITY Attraction is a strong draw card for tourists and locals alike due to the amalgamation of special effects technology, science and immersive art.

“INFINITY has an extraordinarily high level of repeat visitation driven by patrons wanting to share their ‘discovery’ with their friends and family”, states attraction creator, Gold Coast based inventor and leisure entertainment concept designer, Gregg Thompson.

“When patrons are asked to describe INFINITY, numerous people say that it defies explanation – you just have to experience it.”

The attraction’s multi-sensual labyrinth occupies an entire wing of Chevron Renaissance Centre – about 800 square metres and integrates a ‘magic mix’ of fibre optics, special translucent finishes, total internal reflection, infrared and ultraviolet lighting, tactile elements, lasers and projection effects, the latest LED technology, video projection systems and mood-inducing sound technology.

On the cutting edge of technological advances, INFINITY utilises specially developed software running a bank of computers that control the effects in each environment.

Visitors travel by foot at their own pace through 20 different ‘worlds’ or environments specifically designed to challenge the senses and evoke a spectrum of emotional responses, encountering an exciting diversity of innovative optical and tactile illusions as well as suggestive aromatics.

Every environment is designed to ignite the imagination; from the thousands of miniature light sources of The Electron Maze and the Crazy Wobbly challenge to stay vertical on a fluid supported floor, to the incredible walk in space through the centre of the galaxy in the Star Chamber.

Ideal for families, dates and groups looking to celebrate special occasions, enjoy social club and school outings and put a new spin on team building exercises, the INFINITY Attraction journey takes approximately 40 minutes. See you soon at Infinity!

Advertising in Hello Gold Coast - Infinity Attraction

2010-09-16T21:40:00.000-07:00

After a couple years of Infinity attraction advertising in this award winning magazine we thought we should relay some of the impressive facts about the publication.

Hello Gold Coast is an informative and resourceful guide for tourists and locals alike. A one stop reference point for all your holiday needs. It is also very helpful to travel agents.

It is distributed to 100's of Hi Rise apartments, International hotels, Motels, Resorts, Major Shopping precincts and Tour desks. Other locations include Australia Zoo tour desk, major advertisers, video stores, rental car outlets, restaurants, timeshare counters, bus depots and information centres. The publication is displayed at all six tourism information centres from Harbourtown to Kingscliff.

It has secured exclusive distribution rights with exposure in 345 taxis on the Gold Coast. Both Gold Coast and Brisbane domestic and International airports also have the magazine displayed.

It is mail dropped to local residents. A new feature of the magazine from August is Guest TV. This is where it it promoted in-house on the televisions of major Gold Coast hotels. Maps covering the Gold Coast from Coomera to Murwillumbah can also be very handy for your daily trip planning.

The owner of the business, Fred Whittaker is very pro active in the booklets marketing, client service and distribution points. This shows in our research and redemption tracking from our advertising. Three issues are printed each year and over 100,000 copies per issue.

We receive several daily enquiries from its website through the Holiday Planner. This is a website service on the HelloGoldcoast.com.au website which allows you to select what attractions,activities, theme parks or restaurants that you are interested in visiting whilst you are on the Gold Coast. One of these businesses will then forward via email or post information on your enquiry.
If you are travelling to the Gold Coast make su you pick up a copy or ask for one to be sent to you prior to your arrival.

Bobino Ipod - Mobile cable wrap at Infinity Attraction

2010-08-30T21:15:00.000-07:00

Simple and effective design, how did we live without them?

With the billions of mobile, Ipod and PDA devices sold to date it no wonder this product was the best seller in 2009.

A 21st century invention, the Bobino was designed with those all too familiar, chaotic cord clusters in mind. Suitable to use with ipods and mp3 players, mobile phone ear buds, chargers and computer cables.

The Bobino transforms those knotted, confusing balls of cord into colourcoded convenience. There are an assortment of Bobino colours and sizes to use for every situation. Designate a colour to each family member so you can grab your neatly wrapped, easily distinguished, phone charger hassle free from the kitchen drawer. Use the large size Bobino to tie up rogue computer cables under your work desk, and use the medium sized Bobino in your car for your phone, ipod and GPS. Some of the key features of the Bobino are it’s flat profile, so cords will be wrapped up effectively without turning into huge balls of cable. And secondly, the two ends of Bobino are easily pushed open to allow the cord to be wound and unwound effortlessly. Its simple and effective design makes you wonder why you didn't come up with the idea.

The month of July has seen a steady influx of Middle Eastern tourists to our shores. Once again, Infinity has been a popular destination for their fun and entertainment whilst they are here on the Gold Coast. They love Infinity! We have seen all nationalities from Oman, Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Last year saw a sharp decline in the inbound travel from the Middle East due to the Swine Flu. This year Ramadan starts a little earlier, on August 10th, so most of this profitable market will be heading home.
