The Yuggera and Turrbal Peoples
Queensland
Brisbane
A new permanent activation, designed by Populous, was launched at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium ahead of 2025's first round State of Origin game. The Queenslander tribute captures Origin greats and Queensland representatives outside of Origin who have helped shape the game of rugby league and formed a part of Queensland culture. The activation is a modern tribute to the history of Queensland rugby league. It celebrates the proud history of the Queensland Maroons and has become a beacon within the Suncorp precinct as fans young and old make the procession from Caxton Street.
The nature of the displays invites people to interact and find their heroes and relive their most memorable rugby league moments. Having this legacy on show for all patrons and visitors adds to the history of the Stadium and allows fans to soak up all that makes Origin and the Queenslander spirit so special.
