🎉 This is fantastic news for the region! 🎊

NSW Government has allocated over $14 million to kick-start planning and development of the Broadmeadow precinct, including a new entertainment centre, in yesterday’s budget announcement.

Known as Newcastle Arena, the proposed 12,000-seat entertainment and conference centre would be located in the space to the north of McDonald Jones Stadium. Planning for the centre facilities hopes to attract more international entertainment acts and national sporting franchises.

This is one of the first big steps in the transformation of Broadmeadow, which will ultimately become a residential and entertainment precinct that will be home to 40,000 people and 8,000 workers.

We welcome the Minns Labor Government's $41M investment to revitalise the waterfront, one of the Central Coast's most stunning natural assets. We're proud to play a leading role in this important project.

With $8.5M already allocated to the waterfront, today’s announcement builds upon our commitment to enhance the site and create community benefits. Here's what's coming:

✅ A new waterfront café
✅ A new 1km pathway through Brisbane Water connecting Point Clare to Gosford
✅ Enhanced public spaces along the waterfront from Grahame Park to the Gosford Scout Hall

This investment is the result of genuine community input: nearly 3,500 submissions helped shape this vision, and it shows. We can't wait to help bring it to life!

Have you spotted the floating barge in Gosford’s Brisbane Water? 💦 We’re planning an improved shared path connection from Point Clare to the Gosford CBD, and investigations are underway to help us understand how this could be achieved.

The barge will spend around 3 weeks testing the seabed, and will not include any permanent construction.

These investigation works are part of the Gosford Waterfront project being delivered by HCCDC on behalf of NSW Government.
