New pavilion takes shape

Excellent progress is being made on the new pavilion at A&P Park with the main structure substantially finished and internal wall framing nearing completion.

The new building will replace the old facility, with a modern, multi-use venue designed to support a wide range of sporting and community events. It will become the new home of Marlborough Football and the Marlborough A&P Association, providing enhanced amenities and elevated views across the park.

August’s Infrastructure and Community Partnerships Committee meeting heard that while early project delays have extended the construction timeline beyond the original target for this year's A&P Show, work is steadily continuing and significant milestones have already been achieved.

The $5.9M budget includes pavilion construction, change rooms, car parking, demolition and upgraded public toilets, representing a major investment in community infrastructure for the region.
