International entertainment giant and Australia’s largest theme park operator, Village Roadshow Theme Parks, has joined the Gold Coast Titans as a major sponsorship partner for at least the next two years.

The parent company of Australia’s most-loved theme parks – Movie World, Sea World, Wet’n’Wild, Topgolf, Paradise Country and the Australian Outback Spectacular – will feature as the back-of-jersey partner across the Titans’ NRL jerseys for at least the 2020 and 2021 seasons.

Titans CEO Steve Mitchell said the partnership was a perfect fit between two organisations dedicated to growth and innovation.

“This partnership brings together of our city’s most iconic brands – Village Roadshow Theme Parks’ six attractions, and the Gold Coast Titans,” Mr Mitchell said.

“Village Roadshow Theme Parks are without doubt best-in-class globally when it comes to entertainment for the whole family, sharing with the Titans a passion for innovation to deliver exceptional experiences for stakeholders.

“These shared ideals will help deliver a new-level of game-day experiences for Titans Members and fans, with activations and game-day takeovers driven by Village Roadshow Theme Parks’ superheroes and other characters at Titans home games at Cbus Super Stadium.

“In turn, the Titans will use the national and international reach of the NRL premiership, through its millions of television viewers, to tell the world that the Gold Coast is the must-see destination for world-class sport and world-class entertainment.”

Village Roadshow Theme Parks Chief Operating Officer Bikash Randhawa said his company’s partnership with the Titans would deliver the message that the Gold Coast was the city where everyone from professional athletes to families with young children come to play.

“The Gold Coast is known as being Australia’s playground, and certainly Village Roadshow Theme Parks are synonymous with that,” Mr Randhawa said.

“But this partnership also reinforces the Gold Coast is home to businesses making significant impacts in their respective fields nationally and internationally.

“Village Roadshow Theme Parks are proud to call the Gold Coast home, and equally proud to call the Gold Coast Titans our partners in delivering world-class experiences that will be a source of pride for our city, and an attraction for visitors from around the world.”
