Come Games time, the long planned Brisbane 2032 Olympic Transport Network will be enacted across South East Queensland (SEQ) including Brisbane, Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast, as well as at Cairns and Townsville. As occurred at Sydney 2000, existing public transport resources and infrastructure will be greatly boosted and/or overlaid by the drafting in of a massive fleet of buses and coaches from around Australia but particularly from Queensland and NSW. SEQ is where most of the venues and the Olympic Transport Network will supplement and in some cases replace Brisbane’s existing public transport networks and schedules. Greater Brisbane itself currently has a suburban rail network, suburban bus network, a ferry network on the Brisbane River, heavy rail and soon will have the underground Cross River Rail and Brisbane Metro networks added. The Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast both have extensive bus networks. The Gold Coast, home to the second biggest cluster of venues, also has a growing Light Rail network plus heavy rail.

Possibly still way to early to identify any particular favourites for the honour, but time enough to start nominating names to the list. Speculate away! I’m guessing Peter Bol is out of the running now…- 38 replies

‘Bout time this had it’s own thread, considering the news last month:

Just came across this. It actually makes a lot of sense (at least in Australian terms). More so than Australians Rules Football Lifesaving eyeing Olympic debut in Brisbane 2032

Now that Brisbane 2032 has it’s own sub-forum, it’s probably time to start populating it by moving some discussions to dedicated threads. So let’s start with the possible/probable centrepiece of the games - the Gabba. While it’s still expected to be the main games aand ceremonies stadium, and it seemed all sewn up, at the present, it’s status is not totally secure:

By the time the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Opening Ceremony commences, a total of seven sets of Summer Olympic and Paralympic Ceremonies will have occurred since that memorable night on 15 September 2000 at Stadium Australia when Sydney welcomed the world with a stunning, mega-breathtaking Olympic Opening Ceremony for the ages. That translates to, between 2004 and 2028, a total of 28 Summer Olympics or Paralympics Opening and Closing Ceremonies since Sydney 2000. How will Brisbane and Queensland welcome the world in 2032? Importantly, how will Ceremonies, gimmicks, theatrical and creative presentation have evolved in those preceding 32 years since Sydney 2000, the last time Australia hosted? Will they be downsized or upsized ? Will keeping the shows wholly contained in a stadium be old “old hat”, or will there be a return to blockbuster stadium shows or a combo? What or who would you like to see more of, less of or who should be the director of Ceremonies? Should there be different Directors for each Ceremony?

To start this one off, hot on the heels of Channel 9 in Oz sealing broadcasting rights to the Olympic Games through to 2032, it appears they neglected one thing - the Paralympics. One would hope this is just an oversight. ‘Confused, angry’: Massive problem with Nine’s $305m Olympics deal
