Queenslander's can have their say for the 2032 Olympic games
For the first time since Queensland secured hosting rights for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, residents now have the chance to voice their opinions on how to deliver a world-class event.
The Games Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority (GIICA) Board today launched a public submission portal at www.gamesreview.com.au, marking a major milestone in Games planning.
Deputy Premier Jarrod Bleijie said the Crisafulli Government’s launch of the portal fulfills a commitment to establish an independent authority to review Olympic planning.
“The former State Government wasted 1200 days after Brisbane was named the host city because they were more focused on red carpets, parties, glitz, and glamour.
“Queenslanders don’t want to be embarrassed on the world stage anymore, and the Crisafulli LNP Government is getting the Games back on track.”
The GIICA Board, which held its first meeting just last week, has been tasked with a 100-day review to ensure the Games meet community expectations and deliver long-term benefits.
“The 2032 Olympics and Paralympics will be a landmark, historic event that all Queenslanders can be proud of,” Mr. Bleijie said.
He urged residents to provide feedback, emphasising the opportunity to shape the Games’ vision and legacy.
“I encourage all Queenslanders to have their say, because together we can create a positive vision and leave a remarkable and lasting legacy for generations to come.”
