Stage one of the project will deliver 17,000 square metres of retail showroom space and 450 on-site parking spaces. A future second stage will add another 15,000 square metres, taking the total footprint to 32,000 square metres across the two phases.

Anchoring the precinct is the Anaconda Adventure HQ, which is set to become the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere. Designed to offer more than a standard retail experience, the store will feature interactive elements including a 40-foot lure casting tank, fishing simulators, a cold room for trialling down jackets, and a range of boats on display—all under one roof.

The broader development will include well-known retailers such as Spotlight and Harris Scarfe Home, as well as a gym, café, medical services and commercial tenancies. The mix of offerings is designed to appeal to a wide range of visitors, creating a destination where shopping, lifestyle and convenience intersect.

The construction phase is expected to generate over 400 full-time jobs, with nearly 300 permanent roles anticipated once the precinct is operational.

Brendale Adventure Home HQ is being developed by Spotlight Group and is supported by Moreton Bay. The project is part of a broader push to activate economic development and increase amenity in one of South East Queensland’s fastest-growing regions.
