This place goes hard. I was there for the Brisbane 4x4 and Camping Expo 2024 and it was awesome. The venue is great with lots of toilets, stadium seating and it's close to public transport and street parking, too.

We saw Post Malone here. It was good but an awkward set up given the shape of the stadium. It was good to be able to move about, food trucks, bars and merch stands were great. The seating was uncomfortable, brightly lit and not ideal but overall the concert was great.

Went here for the 4x4 expo. Awesome location, very large. Parking can be a bit ordinary for large events but otherwise sweet

Went for a summer festival. These grounds are long standing. Some of the buildings are relics, some are monuments to time gone by. The old toilet blocks are clean, tidy and with upgraded cisterns etc. but they might have upgraded the insulation as well - it was a good 7 or 8 degrees hotter inside AT NIGHT. Still, it was worth the added hygiene compared to a porta-loo.

Went there for Post Malone. The event organisers didnwhatbthey could with what they had, it would be great if more considerations for wheelchair users and the leaa able bodied persons were better consideed. Minimim spec isn't reallygood enough. Disappointed to see how much of it has been sold off. Getting smaller by the year 😞
