Group GM Marketing

About Us

Discovery Parks is part of Australia’s largest regional accommodation group, the G’DAY Group, with 280+ properties across Australia under two brands; Discovery Holiday Parks and Top Parks. Born and headquartered in SA, we’re one the largest tourism companies in the nation and have an ambitious growth strategy.

In addition to operating parks, we have the G’DAY Rewards program; a community of like-minded travellers with access to exclusive deals and benefits.

We’re a multi-dimensional business. Our owned and licensed properties span an award-winning glamping resort on Rottnest Island (WA), to some of the best family holiday parks in the country and workforce properties servicing the oil and mining sector.

At a time when much of Australia’s tourism industry has suffered the double impact of bushfires and COVID-19, our company is fortunate to be experiencing revenue and network growth.

We’re a company built on passionate and adaptable people who enjoy working within a high-performance team to help our customers “discover what matters”.
