Today (25 March), the Queensland Government will announce the venues for the 2032 Olympics, after undertaking a 100-Day review by the Games Authority. Speculation is widespread, and controversy is expected to be unleashed as the day unfolds.
Joining concerns, the Australian Institute of Architects (AIA) has issued a warning. In a formal statement, President of the Queensland Chapter, Caroline Stalker said, “This is about more than sport; it’s about creating places that enrich communities for decades to come.”
