Queensland tourism will be super-charged with a 20-year plan that takes advantage of more visitors coming to this great State.
By 2032, more visitors will fly directly into Queensland from around the world than ever before. Home-grown tourism experiences, like Australia Zoo, will welcome the world and Queenslanders alike, with more experiences and accommodation. And unique new experiences will be developed, like The Airlie Beach SkyWay in the Whitsundays and the Wangetti Trail spanning from Palm Cove to Port Douglas.
Beyond the Games, the private sector will help transform the Gabba precinct with a new arena and more housing for Queenslanders. This precinct will give Queenslanders even more ways to enjoy Brisbane and give access to bigger and better sports and entertainment.
