Boondall

Postcode: 4034 | Distance to CBD: 20 km

Welcome to Boondall

Boondall's biggest drawcard is the Brisbane Entertainment Centre (BEC). Not only is it a great place to see international musicians, shows and sporting events, it's also a bit of a secret picnic area. There is a lovely lake to have a barbecue, with good facilities provided. During the week it's a quiet oasis in the suburbs. When a performer is playing at the BEC, the carparks are often full to capacity and crowds flock in on the train.

The suburb is also lucky enough to be home to the extensive Boondall Wetlands Park. There is the Environmental Centre (which hosts various events), boardwalks through the park or you can even canoe along the creek which winds towards Moreton Bay. It is a superb spot to spy migratory birds, some of which have flown all the way from Siberia.

Nudgee College is a long-established private boys school, featuring beautiful heritage buildings.  Access to the Sunshine Coast is quick for Boondall locals as the Gateway Motorway is nearby. There is a Boondall and North Boondall train station, which makes commuting to the city quite easy.
