Premier and Minister for Veterans The Honourable David Crisafulli

Delivering 2032 and Beyond: Let the Games Begin on the Gold Coast

  • The Gold Coast to benefit from a winning Games legacy of infrastructure, transport connectivity, tourism and grassroots sport.
  • 2032 Delivery Plan sets the plan for a successful 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
  • Gold Coast to host a range of sports, including basketball, triathlon and hockey.

The Queensland Government has today released the 2032 Delivery Plan, putting the Gold Coast on the roadmap for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

These Games will not just be for Brisbane and the Plan recognises the value in regions like the Gold Coast to host Olympic events, to drive tourism opportunities and support community grassroots sport.

As part of the 2032 Delivery Plan, the Gold Coast is in the box seat for:

  • Upgrades to the Gold Coast Convention Centre and a new Gold Coast Arena.
  • Upgrades to the Gold Coast Hockey Centre to host hockey for the Games.
  • Hosting athletes and team officials in one of the three key Athlete Villages, which will later be transformed to housing.
  • The opportunity to host the iconic triathlon and marathon swimming events at the Southport Broadwater Parklands.
  • Brisbane to Gold Coast Faster Rail, with new stations, and future stages of the Coomera Connector.
  • A share in the $250 million Games On! programs with upgrades to grassroots community clubs.

Premier David Crisafulli said 2032 would be the Queensland Games.

"These Games are a once-in-a-generation opportunity to deliver an infrastructure, tourism and grassroots sports legacy to benefit all of Queensland," Premier Crisafulli said.

"Delivering 2032 and Beyond sets the plan to build much more than what's needed for a few weeks of competition.

"This is a plan that builds for our future, ensuring regional communities continue to benefit for decades to come.

"Come 2032, through better connectivity and the right infrastructure, the Gold Coast will be ready to open its doors not only to the Games but to more tourists, more employment and more opportunities."
