Nine Gold Coast News is a weeknight, local news bulletin of the Nine Network. It is screened on the Gold Coast, Queensland relay of Channel Nine from Brisbane.
Unlike all Nine News bulletins, the Gold Coast bulletin runs for thirty minutes every weeknight. It comprises mainly local news, as well as sport, weather and boating.
Nine Gold Coast News is a regional news service for the Gold Coast, presented by Bruce Paige and Wendy Kingston, sport is presented by Dominique Loudon and weather is presented by Courtney Pattinson. The bulletin airs at 5:30pm on weeknights as an opt-out broadcast on QTQ-9's Gold Coast transmitters, before the main 6pm Brisbane edition of Nine News. Produced from the network's studios at Surfers Paradise, Nine Gold Coast News is also simulcast on local Gold Coast radio station Juice107.3. Darren Curtis, Carrie-Anne Greenbank, Emma O'Rourke and Dominique Loudon are the main fill-in news presenters, with Nicole Rowles, Libby Stone and Luke Bradnam fill-in weather presenters, and Sam Cucchiara the fill-in sport presenter.
Previous presenters of the regional bulletin have included Karl Stefanovic, Natalie Gruzlewski, Rob Readings, Jillian Whiting, Carly Walters, Frank Warrick, Melissa Downes and Eva Milic. Paul Burt presented the weather until joining Seven News Brisbane.
The bulletin first aired in 1996.
