This exclusive event is your opportunity to gain insights into key infrastructure projects and connect with industry leaders driving regional development.
We are excited to announce the following projects will be showcased at our event:
Project: Bendigo Stadium & Bendigo Showgrounds
Under the Victorian Government’s Regional Sports Infrastructure Program, two of Bendigo’s most iconic sporting, cultural and community events facilities, Bendigo Stadium and Bendigo Showgrounds are both being expanded and upgraded.
The upgrades at Bendigo Stadium include a new 2-court annex, upgrades to the existing courts 9 and 10, as well as solar installation, new lighting for the outdoor netball courts, and car park and accessibility works. These improvements will help the stadium maintain its reputation as Bendigo’s premier indoor sports venue.
At the Bendigo Showgrounds, works include a new multipurpose pavilion, a redeveloped arena, and upgrades to entrances and fencing. These changes will enhance the venue’s ability to host community, cultural, and agricultural events.
