  • A new Olympic stadium to host the ceremonies and athletics at the 2032 Summer Games will be built in an inner city Brisbane park, Queensland State Premier David Crisafulli announced on Tuesday as he unveiled the third venue plan for the Games.

The article from Reuters discusses the plans for the 2032 Summer Olympics in Brisbane, Australia, where the main stadium will be constructed in a parkland setting. The Queensland state government has decided to build a new 80,000-seat stadium at Victoria Park, adjacent to the existing Gabba stadium, which will be demolished post-Games. This decision was influenced by the need to avoid disrupting the local community with the extensive renovations required for the Gabba. The new venue aims to be a legacy project, enhancing the city's infrastructure with a focus on sustainability and community use after the Olympics. The project is part of a broader urban renewal plan, with the total cost expected to be significantly less than the initially proposed $2 billion AUD for upgrading the Gabba.
