It’s not in the Dead Centre but Suncorp Stadium is Really Lively Place
Suncorp Stadium is not actually in the dead centre of Brisbane; although, until the late 1800s, this Lang Park site was the North Brisbane Cemetery. Now, redeveloped into a major sporting and entertainment centre, the city’s CBD is only around a ten-minute drive from Suncorp Stadium base in the Milton suburb. A visit here is enhanced by great visitor facilities. Consider the prospect of whilst watching others play their hearts out, you can tap into one of a number of catering outlets that are dotted around the complex and enjoy delicious food choices ranging from burgers to sushi. There are some good beer choices, too. For meals, before or after the match, the nearby Caxton Street offers a great variety of restaurants.
In Beautiful Brisbane, Suncorp Stadium is a Star Feature
Brisbane boasts having Australia’s largest city hall, incorporating an imposing circular concert hall.
