Willow Sports Field demolition
Date: 08/08/2022
The Willows Sports Field (previously known as 1300SMILES Stadium) is being demolished to benefit the local community. The field is located in Kirwan, Townsville, and was the previous home of the North Queensland Cowboys National Rugby League (NRL) Team. The team has now moved to the state-of-the-art Queensland Country Bank Stadium.
The Department of Energy and Public Works (DEPW) is managing the demolition. Work is expected to commence in mid-2022.
On 25 January 2022 the Queensland Government announced that a $30 million ‘state-of-the-art’ multi-purpose police facility will be built on the site.
