We are calling the LNP government to keep their word and protect Victoria Park Barrambin!
With a strong track record of selling off and privatising public assets, it is clear that our iconic public parkland is not safe under the LNP.
We've seen months of LNP Mayor Adrian Schrinner spruiking plans for stadiums in the green lungs of our city despite their commitment to transform Victoria Park Barrambin into a 64-hectare urban parkland for the public.
We saw Premier Crisafulli quietly drop his commitment to "no new stadiums" when he included new stadiums in the 100-day review's terms of reference. Now, the Premier has walked back his promise entirely and is leaving the fate of our historic park at the hands of wealthy developers.

We have clear a message - KEEP. YOUR. WORD. Deliver Brisbane’s biggest park. Protect Victoria Park Barrambin.
Please join us for a 'Picnic March' at Queens Garden in Brisbane CBD to protect Victoria Park Barrambin. We will be walking to Parliament House Speakers Corner.
