Get ready for the biggest night of the year—El Cam style. If you’re hunting for the ultimate spot to catch the Surfers Paradise fireworks while feasting on loaded nachos and frozen ‘Ritas bigger than your head, we’ve got you covered. This New Year’s Eve, El Camino Surfers Paradise is turning up the volume with front-row seats to the Gold Coast fireworks, bold Tex-Mex flavours, and the kind of full-throttle fiesta energy that only El Camino brings.
The Best Seat in the House for NYE Surfers Paradise
Here’s the deal: our balcony isn’t just any dining spot—it’s your VIP access to the most spectacular Surfers Paradise NYE fireworks show on the Gold Coast. From 5:30pm, balcony guests get unbeatable views of both the early evening display and the midnight spectacular, all while digging into our Sizzle & Sparkle Package. Think sizzling fajitas, sauce-smacked wings, and a two-hour beverage package featuring all our legendary ‘Rita flavours. At $119 per person, it’s the ultimate way to dine, drink, and watch the sky light up over Surfers Paradise Beach.
Balcony tables book out fast (we’re talking lightning-fast for NYE fireworks Gold Coast views this good), so if you want that prime fireworks position with your Turbocharged ‘Rita in hand, lock in your spot now. Each balcony seating runs for 2.5 hours, giving you plenty of time to feast, toast, and count down to 2026 in style.
Keep the Fiesta Going Inside
Prefer to join the party in our main dining area? No problem. You’ll still get all that El Camino energy—cranked-up rock ‘n’ roll, neon buzzing, and the smell of Tex-Mex hitting the grill—without the balcony commitment. Choose from our full à la carte menu or go all-in with the Sizzle & Sparkle Package to keep the good times rolling all night long.
What's on the Sizzle & Sparkle Menu?
This isn’t your average NYE Surfers Paradise dinner—this is Tex-Mex done right, served family-style and made for sharing. Here’s what hits your table:
Entrée
Start with Carne Nachos piled high with beef, melted cheese, pico de gallo, sour cream and jalapeños, plus our Classic Buffalo Chicken Wings to get the party started.
Main
The hero of the night: our Combination Fajita Platter featuring Adobo Chicken and Barbacoa Beef Steak. Served sizzling hot with house-made tortillas, sautéed capsicums and onions, cheese, pico de gallo, and sour cream—everything you need to build the perfect taco.
Dessert
Finish strong with Los Churros, because no fiesta is complete without something sweet.
Drinks
Here’s where it gets legendary: a two-hour beverage package with all our signature ‘Rita flavours, tap beers, house wines, and soft drinks. From classic lime to mango, strawberry, and even Grape Nerd, you’ll have plenty of options to toast to 2026.
Why El Camino for New Year's Eve?
Let’s be real—you’ve got options for fireworks Gold Coast celebrations. But here’s what makes El Camino different: we don’t do quiet. We don’t do subtle. We do loud, loaded, and legendary. This is where Rock ‘n’ Roll meets Tex-Mex, where frozen ‘Ritas flow freely, and where the atmosphere cranks to eleven before the clock even strikes midnight.
Whether you’re grabbing a balcony table for those prime Surfers Paradise fireworks views or joining the party inside, you’re guaranteed bold flavours, good times, and the kind of energy that only El Camino delivers. Plus, with our Surfers Paradise location right in the heart of the action, you’re steps away from all the Gold Coast NYE festivities.
Book Your Table Before It’s Too Late
Spots are filling up faster than you can say “Turbocharged ‘Rita.” Don’t miss your chance to ring in 2026 with the biggest flavours, the best views, and the wildest fiesta on the Gold Coast.
