Construction of the new 63,000-seat Olympic stadium at Victoria Park has officially begun as the main venue for the 2032 Brisbane Games. Demolition has also started at the Logan PCYC site south of Brisbane to make way for a new 7,000-seat indoor sports centre with nine courts.

Victoria Park Stadium Progress

The Victoria Park project forms the centrepiece of preparations for the 2032 Games. Site work is under way on the 63,000-seat stadium, which will host athletics and other major events during the Olympics.

Logan Indoor Centre Development

South of Brisbane, demolition is under way at the Logan PCYC site. The replacement facility will provide 7,000 seats and nine indoor courts dedicated to Olympic and community use.

Suburban Facility Upgrades

Brisbane City Council has announced upgrades at four suburban sports facilities. These include North Star Football Club in Zillmere, Oxenham Park in Nundah, Waterloo Bay Leisure Centre in Wynnum and Runcorn Pool. The works will improve local training and competition options ahead of the Games.

Ballymore Rugby Centre

Separately, a new $31.5 million National Rugby Training Centre is planned at Ballymore. The project adds dedicated high-performance space for rugby programs in the city.

These infrastructure steps align with the timeline for the 2032 Games and ongoing local sports needs. Residents can follow updates through Brisbane City Council channels and Queensland Government sport sites for any public access or consultation opportunities.
