Commonwealth Games Venue

Let's all get behind Queensland's bid to host the 2018 Commonwealth Games. If the Gold Coast is successful, some preliminary rounds of the men's and women's basketball competition will be held at the Cairns Convention Centre. What a great opportunity for locals to share in the excitement of the 2018 Commonwealth Games.
