UTAS STADIUM (Stage III)
Consistent with the York Park Masterplan, this project is instrumental in the State Government’s decision to create Stadiums Tasmania. Connecting to the Stadium, the facility will address a regional shortage for community sport and will become a destination venue as an important economic driver for region and state.
UTAS Stadium Stage III development will see a state-of-the-art multi-purpose complex built adjacent to the stadium, providing for marque basketball and netball courts, trade expo space of a concert space with a 5,000 person capacity.
Located adjacent to the UTAS Stadium and seamlessly integrating with the transformational projects taking place within the Inveresk precinct, the facility will elevate Launceston as a hub for social, cultural, and educational initiatives.
During 2024, ownership of UTAS Stadium was transferred from City of Launceston to Stadiums Tasmania, who remain committed to the on-going development of the venue and hosting sporting event content in the North.
