Infinity Planet theme park, entertainment precinct proposed for Elimbah, north of Brisbane

A sprawling Dubai-style entertainment city is being proposed to replace farmland just kilometres from the Bruce Highway north of Brisbane, with developers claiming it would create nearly 5000 jobs.

A strawberry and macadamia farm just a kilometre from the Steve Irwin Way turn-off could be turned into a $2.6bn Dubai-style entertainment precinct complete with theme parks, 700 hotel rooms and a cultural mall.

And the first precinct will open in time for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games — at least according to new developer RHC City.

The project at Elimbah is being pitched as a “permanent world expo” dubbed Infinity Planet, with development application documents now submitted with Moreton Bay City Council.
It would be built alongside the Bruce Highway at a 68 hectare site which includes 235-245 Bartholomew Road, Elimbah, currently used for strawberry and macadamia farming.
Infinity Planet would include a 9000-seat city hall centrepiece venue, a 136,000 sqm “internationally themed” retail and dining precinct, and a “globally connected business and technology park”.

The first stage would include a theme park, city hall, cultural mall, complex art mall, and 10,000 car spaces — though there will be no driving allowed within the precinct itself.

Visitors are instead “encouraged to come and go by train” via Elimbah Station, which is more than 3km away.

RHC City chief executive Ramin Ahmadi said Infinity Planet would be Australia’s “largest purpose-built integrated entertainment city”, with parts scheduled to open before the 2032 Games.

There would be fifty pavilions available for interested countries to invest in, from where they could share their culture with visitors, Mr Ahmadi said.
“We want to present Australia’s culture to the world, and bring the world’s culture to Australia,” he said.
The second stage would include the hotel towers, technology park, office and training centre, and residential apartments for employees and visiting professionals.

The high-end construction — like the city hall — would be handled by experts with experience in Asia, where Mr Ahmadi’s company has deeper connections.
To build the site, the developers are requesting a new site-specific planning scheme.
They believe up to 1.2 million people would visit the theme parks each year, and 1.8 million would head there to shop.

The developers claim the project would create 1075 jobs over the five-year construction period and support 1320 indirect full-time-equivalent jobs across the supply chain.
They also claim the project would generate 4670 direct jobs once operational, along with 1440 indirect jobs — which they said represents around five per cent of total employment for the City of Moreton Bay.
A City of Moreton Bay spokesman said council wasn’t surprised the region was picked for the “iconic destination project”.
“We look forward to hearing how the project progresses, and welcome any employment, recreational and economic benefits that eventuate.”

A development application seen by this masthead lists RHC City’s past project experience in “co-construction” and as “delivery partners” for the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, JW Marriott Hotel in Baku, and Warisan Merdeka Mall in Kuala Lumpur.
ASIC records show Mr Ahmadi is the majority shareholder for RHC City, and has two fellow directors who part own the business, Hotan Ehsani and Amir Ranjbar.

 

 

Add this one to the list boys. I think it slots nicely between Actventure and Habitat Waterford, nestled in closely with Australian Disney.

I’ll be shocked if this ever happens. In the realm of Wonderland 2

I like how the theme park was designed using Planet Coaster.🤣

I like how diverse the ride line up is with 3 pirate ships (two of which are identical) and 2 twin hammers.

 

Edit:  Just saw the 2 gyro swings too.

You can never have enough pirate ships.

I'm personally excited for the Arrow Corkscrew.  Nothing screams 'iconic destination' like a 1980s roller coaster.

I'd come to reply about the multiple ships, gyros and ranger\twin hammers - but since that's all been taken, i'd like to point out the multiple circus tents that can't be much bigger than a disabled portaloo.

Oh you mean the conjoined Tents?

No, that's pretty normal

 

Moreso I meant the tents that were for ants (only old people will get that reference) like this one which has both a ranger and a gyro for scale.
