Brisbane’s first new public golf course in more than 70 years is set to swing into action this September.
Brisbane City Council Lord Mayor, Adrian Schrinner said the former landfill site in Cannon Hill had undergone an incredible transformation with golf course operator, Clublinks, stepping up to the tee to run the golf course and a fantastic community space.
“Minnippi Golf & Range will deliver so much more than just golf, it will become a family-friendly destination for fun in our suburbs,” Lord Mayor Schrinner said.
“We are about to hit the exciting milestone of opening the public golf course, with even more facilities including food and beverage, a golf shop and community activations to be delivered throughout 2023 and into 2024.
“The delivery of this golf course is within a 125-hectare site in an incredibly green part of Brisbane and the protection of this environment was an integral focus of the design.”
As part of the Council’s vision for a clean, green and sustainable city, the golf course will feature timber bunkers and has been constructed in a flood-resilient way.
“Minnippi Golf & Range will be the first and only 18-hole public golf course south of the Brisbane River and along with the complimentary community spaces this suburban destination will deliver a diverse range of opportunities for residents of all ages and interests.”
