Nestled in the heart of Mackay, Queensland, the Great Barrier Reef Arena embodies the community’s passion for sport and its power to bring people together.

The journey to creating this iconic venue began in 2017 with Harrup Park Country Club’s vision to enhance its capacity for major sporting and community events. After six years of planning, collaboration, and stakeholder engagement, the Great Barrier Reef Arena now stands as a premier venue enjoyed by both locals and tourists.
