The Gabba Heart Precinct represents a major opportunity to reshape Woolloongabba into one of Brisbane’s most connected lifestyle destinations. Anchored by a new 17,000-seat indoor arena and a mix of residential, hotel and retail uses, the precinct is part of the state’s long-term legacy plan for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Located less than two kilometres from the CBD, the redevelopment will transform the area surrounding the Gabba into a vibrant, high-density urban community that balances entertainment, housing and public amenity.

Drawing from Woolloongabba’s origins as a place close to water and a traditional gathering point, the design vision enhances the public realm through a network of laneways, parks and green spaces that link seamlessly with the broader inner-south. At the heart of the plan is a commitment to human-scale streets and active frontages, ensuring that retail, dining and hospitality offerings contribute to a lively public experience throughout the day and night.
