Redevelopment of Bundaberg ANZAC Park

ANZAC Park Bundaberg will create new recreational spaces and a memorial avenue commemorating the region’s service personnel.

Stage 1 Redevelopment Update

The scaled-down Stage 1 Anzac Park Redevelopment works commenced in September 2024 to ensure memorial services can return to Anzac Park as soon as possible. Stage 1 works will be delivered by both internal departments and external local subcontractors. Subcontractor availability and weather conditions will ultimately determine the completion date.

Stage 1 scope will include:

  • Anzac and entertainment lawn including memorial and flagpole for Anzac Day Services
  • Pathways, memorial plinths and landscaping including trees and planting
  • Amenities and undercover BBQ area including Changing Places Facilities
  • Stabilisation of existing riverside embankment
  • Stormwater, electrical and water infrastructure to compliment current and future development
  • Memorial Artwork
  • Park Bench seating throughout

Stage 1 design and construction will lay the foundation for future development stages to achieve ultimate design when Council is in a financial position to do so.

  • June 2025 Project Update

    Works on the Anzac Park Stage 1 Redevelopment are progressing well with bulk earthworks, stormwater drainage and sewer relocation being completed in the first quarter of 2025.

    Works in progress:

    • Inground services have recently been completed in May 25 with concrete pathways detailed landscaping progressing
    • Concrete seating and memorial elements will soon be lifted into place in July 2025
    • Council have worked with the RSL to have the Ordnance QF 25 – Pounder Field Gun returned to Anzac Park
    • Riverside lights adjacent to ANZAC Park have been repaired and are now working
    • Anzac Veterans Memorial Monument has been returned to Anzac Park after being temporarily relocated at BUSS Park
    • Flag pole installed

    A combination of unexpected works including heritage considerations, compliance requirements, site conditions and weather impacts have delayed the Project.

    Works are scheduled to be completed in August 2025 with the exception of the Amenities building and surrounding area which is scheduled to be complete in October 2025 weather conditions permitting.
