Cracked concrete, corroded roofs and a termite infestation are among the hundreds of recently reported defects at major stadiums across south-east Queensland.
The list of maintenance jobs reveals the work that needs to be done – separate to the construction of any new venues – ahead of the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The defects were revealed in QBuild maintenance assessment reports, produced for Stadiums Queensland between 2021 and 2024 and obtained under the Right to Information Act.
An inspection of the Brisbane Entertainment Centre revealed a corroding roof that will require 10,200 square metres of new sheeting, and 14,000 old and stained seats that will need to be replaced.
