Have your say and help shape the future vision and identity of New Farm Park.
This iconic riverside park is highly valued by both the local and broader Brisbane community and Council is looking to work with the community to develop a shared vision for the park.
New Farm Park covers 15 hectares of land and has been used as a Council park since 1914. The park is heritage listed in both Council’s local heritage register and in the Queensland State Heritage Register.
Council is gathering feedback from the community to understand the cultural, recreational, historical and environmental importance of New Farm Park to residents and park visitors. This vision will provide a framework to help guide the future of New Farm Park, in keeping with heritage and community values.

What does it mean for a park to be heritage listed?
The Queensland Heritage Register is a list of places that have cultural heritage significance to the people of Queensland and may include sites of public recreation, parks and gardens. Development on Queensland Government listed sites is managed by State legislation.
Brisbane City Council’s heritage listing process aims to identify and protect places of cultural heritage significance in Brisbane. A local heritage place is protected by Council’s legislative framework to control demolition, removal and development in accordance with the City Plan provisions.
