Lights Out And Dance is proud to present to the Gold Coast, the global phenomenon that is
The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever, Gold Coast
🎈💃 GET READY TO WUTHER, GOLD COAST! 💃🎈
If you’ve ever dreamed of dancing wildly through the grass in a flowing red dress, channelling your inner Kate Bush — welcome, you’ve found your people!
The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever is a joyful, inclusive, and gloriously eccentric community event held in over 70 cities worldwide. Inspired by Kate Bush and her iconic Wuthering Heights music video, it invites hundreds of red-dressed participants to gather, twirl, flutter, and float across grassy fields in a joyous celebration of creativity and connection.
At its core, this event is more than just fun — it’s about raising our voices (and our arms) against domestic violence. Every local gathering raises vital funds for a frontline organisation making a real difference in the lives of those affected.
Expect big-hearted dancing, windswept energy, and a sea of red in motion – all in the name of solidarity, community, and change.
And yes, everyone wears red. 👗
Heading into its 8th year in 2026 on the Gold Coast, you can expect this magical morning at the Broadwater Parklands to be full of laughter, movement, connection, and heartfelt solidarity. Whether you’re a diehard Kate Bush fan or just someone who loves dancing barefoot in the grass, you’ll feel right at home.
✨ Proudly presented by Lights Out And Dance, the ‘me-time’ movement that’s all about joyful dance, connection and community.

🙏🏻 A very special thanks:
We are both humbled and thrilled by the support for our event from Cr Brooke Patterson and her team. After wuthering with us in 2025, Cr Patterson fell in love with the magic of the Wuther and generously offered to back us in any way she could to help raise even more for Friends With Dignity. We’re thrilled to welcome her back to the (not-so-windy, not-so-wily) moors and are endlessly grateful for her championing of our cause!
❤️ Thanks to Shambush for the original idea that inspired a global movement of wuthering wonder and Samantha Wareing, who, with permission from Shambush, created The Most Wuthering Heights Day Ever that’s taken the world by storm.
Let’s make 2026 unforgettable!
