Brisbane eyes 2032

Australia

The unanimous vote of the IOC for a double attribution of the Summer Games, Tuesday July 11 in Lausanne, sent to the nettles the projects of candidacy for the Olympics in 2028. But in Australia, Brisbane is already looking at the 2032 option. For Graham Quirk, the mayor of Queensland's capital, said the IOC session's decision is not expected to affect his city council's decision on a future bid. “The feasibility study we are currently carrying out is very much about the equipment and infrastructure that South Queensland needs for its future,” he explained. Our region will need it, with or without the Games. » According to Graham Quirk, the Brisbane City Council must discuss the question of an Olympic project “before the end of the month”.
