We are calling on governments at all levels to keep their word and preserve Victoria Park/ Barrambin.
Barrambin holds deep cultural and spiritual significance to the First Nations Yuggera and Turrbal peoples. This was a camp ground and meeting place for corroborees, dancing, hunting and gathering. A place for other First Nations to visit and stay from other regions.
The 100 day review of Olympic stadiums has leaked that they are proposing an Olympic stadium in Barrambin. Announcements will be formally made on 25th March 2024.
We have clear a message - Preserve Brisbane’s biggest park. Preserve Victoria Park Barrambin.
