City Venue Management appointed to manage Gold Coast aquatic centres
City Venue Management (CVM) is honoured to have been appointed by the City of Gold Coast to manage and operate eight community aquatic centres across the Gold Coast. We know these centres are much more than places to swim. They are community hubs and an important part of everyday life – where children learn essential water safety skills, families spend time together, people stay active and healthy, athletes train, and lifelong connections are made.

Safety is at the heart of every aquatic facility.
Every day, thousands of people visit public pools to learn to swim, exercise, train, spend time with family and enjoy their local community. Creating an environment where people can participate with confidence requires a strong commitment to safety, compliance and high operational standards.
