Robina is a major suburb located on the Gold Coast, approximately 16 kilometers inland from Surfers Paradise. Geographically, the area around Cbus Super Stadium is characterized by flat, paved urban terrain, which contributes to the race's reputation for being "fast" and conducive to personal bests. In late April, the Gold Coast experiences mild and pleasant autumn weather; average daytime temperatures reach 24°C (75°F), but the 6:00 AM start time typically offers cooler conditions around 15°C (59°F), ideal for long-distance running. The stadium location provides excellent infrastructure, including ample space for the event village and easy access via public transport.

Logistically, the festival encourages participants to engage with charitable causes, with the "Walk With Us Gold Coast" initiative already having raised significant funds for the 2026 event. Registration is handled through the Race Roster platform, where participants can join or view teams and monitor fundraising leaderboards. Beyond the competition, the event is promoted as a weekend-long destination experience, highlighting the broader attractions of the Gold Coast. For any specific inquiries regarding wave starts or race pack collection, participants can contact the organizers via the official event website or their Robina-based office.
