Venues
The Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games bring unmissable opportunities to accelerate the advancement of our entire state, and the Games Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority (GIICA) is making the most of them.
Established to lay the foundations for the world’s biggest event, GIICA will ensure new and upgraded venues used for the Games create a positive impact and lasting legacy for Queenslanders.
Following the 100 Day Review of Games infrastructure and planning conducted by GIICA, the Queensland Government announced the 2032 Delivery Plan on 25 March 2025. Visit delivering2032.com.au to see how GIICA’s new and upgraded infrastructure projects fit into the broader plan for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Our Venues
GIICA are responsible for delivering new and upgraded venues in time for the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games,
All new and upgraded venues will be planned and designed to meet the needs of our growing regions, with benefits being realised before the Games begin, so that Queenslanders can start enjoying the new and improved facilities on offer.
New and upgraded facilities will be purpose-designed to meet local community participation needs first and foremost.
Shortly before the Games, the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games Organising Committee will prepare these new and upgraded venues, plus existing, temporary and non-competition venues, for hosting Games events.
Following the Games, the venues will be returned to the community to serve long-lasting benefits.
