About
Stadiums Tasmania is a Tasmanian Government-owned independent statutory authority established under the Stadiums Tasmania Act 2022. Stadiums Tasmania commenced operations on 1 July 2023.
Stadiums Tasmania was established in order to oversee the sound use, management, operations, maintenance and investment in major public stadiums and related assets in Tasmania, with the aim of maximising the economic and community benefits provided by Tasmania’s major public stadia infrastructure.
Stadiums Tasmania centralises the ownership, management, and future capital development of Tasmania’s major public stadiums under a single entity with a statewide perspective.
As is the case across similar statutory bodies across Australia, Stadiums Tasmania will build capacity and deliver efficiencies as an integrated statewide network of stadium venues, to host major sporting, entertainment, and community events.
With a highly skilled and experienced Board and management team, it will also ensure Tasmania’s major public stadiums operate effectively and efficiently and continue to meet the future needs of audiences and key user groups across the sporting, entertainment, community, arts and culture sectors.
