PUBLIC RECORD

The Silverdome is an indoor sporting and entertainment arena located in Prospect, a suburb in Launceston, Tasmania. The arena was constructed in 1984 and has a seating capacity of 3,250. The arena includes and indoor velodrome and was upgraded in 1997 to house the Tasmanian Institute of Sport (TIS) facilities and offices. The arena continues to provide specialist cycling facilities as well as providing a venue for community sport, exhibitions and concerts. The venue also plays host to the Tasmania Jack Jumpers National Basketball League (NBL) team for multiple games during the season. In 2024 the Tasmanian Government committed to pursuing a redevelopment of the Silverdome (the project) committing $12 million to upgrade the facility. The project aims to realise the following outcomes and objectives: · Increased venue patronage and memorable ‘fan first’ patron experience. · Capacity to host NBL games as the Northern home of the JackJumpers. · Deliver functional and integrated facilities that meet the needs of stadium management, tenants, hirers, patrons and the local community. · Support opportunities for attracting major events to the City of Launceston and further supporting opportunities for business, retail, and lifestyle within the city. · Maximise opportunities for increased financial returns for the arena management, tenants, and hirers. · An accessible and economically sustainable venue. · Ensure continued access for the staging of community sporting and cultural events. · Minimise the operational and financial impact for stadium management, tenants, hirers, and patrons during the redevelopment.
