Refresh their wardrobe with these fashion boutiques
Whilst the precinct is no stranger to fashion retailers, Paradise Centre has welcomed a few brand-new and gift-stocked stores that will be your next new favourites. First up is Gypsy Wanderer, a womenswear store that’s home to a curated collection of boho-chic clothing. With floaty tops, palazzo pants and Italian linen dresses, it’s full of new summer wardrobe staples. Discover more show-stopping womenswear at Shop Collab. The newest women’s fashion boutique at Paradise Centre, Shop Collab is the brainchild of Dora, a Gold Coast fashion veteran who has curated a considered collection of stylish, timeless pieces. For your resident football fiend, you should look no further than The Footy Man. From official merchandise to clothing and memorabilia, The Footy Man is a one-stop shop of goodies that any budding or big footy enthusiast will love. 

Spoil them at these treasure troves of keepsakes
Paradise Centre’s three new retailers are stocked with special keepsakes and nick-nacks for adults and kids alike. At Mr Brix, discover toys, card games and board games for all ages as well as plenty of gaming essentials. From sought-after collectibles to fun family-friendly games, Mr Brix has options for all ages. You’ll also find Australia’s most famous koala Kiki on the ground level at the pink-toned palace, Kiki Koala Cafe. Discover adorable Kiki Koala-themed treasures like clothing, plush toys and souvenirs that any little one will love. For something more elevated (and adult-approved), you can explore mementos of your beach holiday, stunning decor and beautiful gifts at Huntress Homewares. Brimming with coastal-inspired keepsakes, Huntress Homewares lets you give the gift of paradise this Christmas.
Refuel with a frosty beer or nutrient-dense bowl at Paradise Centre’s new dining destinations
Once you’ve crossed off your Christmas list, you can refuel with a brew and bite at The Sporting Globe x 4 Pine. With more than 60 HD screens playing the best live sport and taps pouring four in-house brewed 4 Pines beers, it’s the perfect spot to sit back and unwind after a big day of gifting. If summer leaves you craving a refreshing smoothie, Nautical Bowls has you covered. The superfood smoothie bowls are made with organic, plant-based ingredients and packed with vitamins and nutrients – making them the perfect summer pick-me-up after a big day of shopping.

Rest and recharge with a self-care session
It’s no secret that the holidays – despite what the name might suggest – are stressful. With all the errand runs and catch ups, it can be hard to schedule in some ‘you’ time. Luckily, Paradise Centre recently welcomed two new spots to help you prioritise your pamper time. At Lux Nails, refresh with a mani-pedi package and unwind with a lick of polish and a heavenly hand massage. If you’re looking a little shaggy, and not in the stylish way, Golden Blade Barber just opened its doors, specialising in sharp cuts and fresh fades. With traditional barbering techniques and modern styles, it’s a must-hit before facing all those family pictures this season.
