Project update: July 16, 2026
Exciting things are happening!
Stage 1B of the Northern Beaches Community Hub is taking shape and offers everything a growing community will need.
Stage 1A is already being well-used by the community, with the undercover multi-purpose court and adventure play area proving to be a hit.
Stage 1B is under construction and will be anchored by a vibrant new library. It will also feature customer service facilities, bookable flexible community rooms and a café space.
The new Northern Beaches library, located at the Northern Beaches Community Hub, will be a fully accessible, modern facility with plenty of parking, including undercover parking for those rainy days.
Are you a community group looking for somewhere to get together? Then why not utilise one of the Hub’s nine bookable community rooms adjoining the library?
Looking for some quiet time? You will be able to head to the café and enjoy a drink while overlooking the lush gardens in the Town Square.
It will be a modern space for a modern community!
The Australian Government has contributed $6.5 million towards Stage 1A and $15 million through the Growing Regions Program Round 1 for Stage 1B of the Northern Beaches Community Hub.
The Growing Regions Program supports community‑focused infrastructure that revitalises regional areas and improves local amenity and liveability.
Stages 1A and 1B of the Northern Beaches Community Hub are jointly funded by the Australian Government and Mackay Regional Council.
