Where will athletes stay during Brisbane 2032?

Brisbane Showgrounds anchors the accommodation plan. The Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Rockhampton proposals each have a different purpose and stage.

At Bowen Hills, the state expects the main village to accommodate more than 10,000 Olympic athletes and officials. Around 5,000 are expected during the Paralympics. The state is also restoring the Showgrounds heritage grandstands and planning around 1,800 homes for the precinct after the Games. Queensland Government ↗

On the Sunshine Coast, road and service works in Maroochydore prepare the city centre for development that includes the proposed village. These early precinct works are a different milestone from constructing the accommodation itself. Sunshine Coast Council ↗

Queensland also names Royal Pines on the Gold Coast. In Rockhampton, the government identifies the Railyards precinct for regional accommodation. Each village profile sets out the local proposal and the evidence available. Queensland Government ↗
