Public Exhibition of the Jubilee Stadium Precinct Master Plan and Plan of Management
What This Project Is About
The Jubilee Stadium Precinct is the area in Kogarah bounded by Princes Highway, Jubilee Avenue, Park Street, and English Street. This area includes several important spaces: Jubilee Stadium, Kogarah Park and playground, community buildings run by Kogarah Community Services, Nan Tien Buddhist Temple, Kogarah war memorial, and the Legend's Walk.
Because part of this land is owned by the state government (Crown Land), Council must create a Plan of Management— a legal document that sets out how the land will be used, improved, and looked after in the future.
To coordinate the vision for future development of the Precinct, Council also decided to create a Master Plan for the whole area.
Where We Are Now

Following approval from Crown Lands, the draft Master Plan and Plan of Management is now publicly available to view and provide feedback.

✅ Expand and diversify community use
✅ Continue operation as an elite sport destination
✅ Preserve and enhance open space
✅ Improve pedestrian access and connectivity
✅ Maximise amenity and activation

Background information
December 2025
Council worked with the NSW Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure (Crown Lands) to finalise the draft Plans.
In reviewing the draft Plans, Crown Lands recommended an alternate categorisation of land to the ‘General Community Use’ category Council had endorsed. Instead, Crown Lands suggested dividing the precinct into three different categories based on what each area is used for:
| Area | Category | What it means |
| Jubilee Stadium oval (the grass playing surface) | Sportsground | The land is used primarily for active recreation involving organised sports or the playing of outdoor games |
| Jubilee Stadium buildings, grandstand, and land around the oval | General Community Use | This land is used to meet the current and future needs of the local community and of the wider public for public recreation, as well as the physical, cultural, social and intellectual welfare or development of individual members of the public |
| Kogarah Park (near Princes Highway) and small areas near the War Memorial and Park Street/Jubilee Avenue corner | Park | This land is used mainly for passive or active recreational, social, educational and cultural pursuits |
In November 2025, Council reviewed the new categorisation and approved it. The amended Plans were sent back to Crown Lands for final approval. On 4 December 2025, Crown Lands confirmed that the Plans are ready to go to public exhibition.
April 2025
The draft Plans were submitted to the NSW Department of Planning, Housing and Infrastructure for review and approval.
March 2025
The planning team finished the first draft of the Master Plan and Plan of Management based on your feedback. Council's Environment and Planning Committee reviewed these documents on 10 March 2025, and Council approved them on 24 March 2025.
November 2024
Council received a summary of all the feedback we collected. This helped guide our planning team as they started creating the draft Master Plan and Plan of Management.
June 2024
We asked the community for their feedback on what the Jubilee Stadium Precinct should look like in the future. We held community sessions across June where people could share their ideas face-to-face. We received over 200 submissions in total. Thank you to everyone who participated. You can also read the full Engagement Summary Report – Phase 1 to see what feedback was received during the first round of consultation.
