Does Queen’s Wharf Brisbane mean a second casino will be opened in Brisbane?

No, Brisbane's former Treasury Casino closed in August 2024 and has been replaced by a new purpose-built facility within the IRD.

The old Treasury Casino building will be repurposed into tertiary educational use with publicly accessible spaces.

The new Star Casino within QWB is less than 5% of the overall development and is comparable to other IRDs in Australia and globally.

The Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation is responsible for all suitability and probity requirements for the new casino.
