Keppel Bay Convention and Sporting Hub receives $20 Million commitment!
Posted on April 24th, 2019
The construction of a 1000 seat Convention Centre for the Rockhampton/Capricorn Coast region was identified in 2010 as a Regional Priority Project, reiterated in our 2014-2020 Capricorn Destination Tourism Plan and is now a reality with this week’s Federal government election commitment of $20 Million to support the $65 Million Keppel Bay Sailing Club’s Convention And Sporting Hub plans which also includes accommodation, parking and hospitality facilities.
This critical regional development is supported by Regional Development Australia, Livingstone Shire Council as well as neighbouring Local Government authorities and the broader community.
Capricorn Enterprise has been acknowledged by the Deputy Prime Minister for the significant role we have played in the collaborative effort with the Keppel Bay Sailing Club in achieving this commitment.
