Multiplex has been named the preferred contractor for the transformational construction works of the $3.6bn Queen’s Wharf Brisbane Integrated Resort Development. The $3.6 billion entertainment and lifestyle precinct covers more than 26 hectares and is being delivered by joint venture Destination Brisbane Consortium.

Destination Brisbane Consortium Project Director Simon Crooks said the contract still required finalisation and remained subject to board approval and state government endorsement, with initial works to start within months.

“The works that Multiplex will deliver include the shell and core works covering the basement, base services, tower structures and the façade of the main integrated resort,” said Crooks.

With a diverse range of premium dining, shopping, entertainment, and accommodation options, Queen’s Wharf is expected to attract 1.39 million additional tourists each year.

Once operational it will also create as many as 10,000 jobs with Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk commenting that the appointment of Multiplex as the “preferred tenderer” was a major milestone for Queensland tourism industry.

“Our priority is jobs and this project provides thousands – in construction and in operating this city changing development,” the Premier said.

Initial works are set to begin within months on the resort’s podium, its Sky Deck and its hotel towers. Completion of the first stage of the Integrated Resort Development is expected in late 2022.
