What happened
Canberra Airport has proposed building a new stadium in the city centre of Canberra. The proposed site is located on Commonwealth land and was previously ruled out for development by the ACT government. The venue would be capable of hosting international musical acts and major sporting events. The design draws inspiration from Te Kaha stadium in Christchurch, New Zealand, which seats up to 36,000.
