Default Advice... Brisbane to Surfers Paradise Transport

Hope its ok to ask you all this?
Coming over from NZ for first trip to Aussie

I am going to be in Surfers Paradise area from tomorrow night for a week.
I really really want to travel to Brisbane to experience the Riverfire show on Saturday, but being a budget tourist and no hire car etc. I worried late evening after the show and battling through the obvious crowds etc that i wont find a way to get back to Surfers and get stuck!

IF and How can i get back from centre of Brisbane late saturday evening (11pm ish?) to Surfers Paradise using public transport? And if anyone knows rough cost etc?

Many thanks

Lee

Nothing direct. You'd have to get the train from Brissie down to Nerang and then bus or taxi to Surfers. No idea of cost of taxi's, never taken one here but the train would probably be about $20 return I think. Ages since I took the train up. Check on the Translink web site.
