Brisbane has been quietly building something that most cities spend decades dreaming about. The result is Queen's Wharf - a 12-hectare riverside quarter that has reconnected the city's CBD to the water and put Brisbane on the map as a destination that holds its own against any major city in the Asia-Pacific. At the heart of it sits The Star Brisbane Australia, our flagship resort and casino.
But here is the detail that reframes everything: the casino floor accounts for just 5% of the total Queen's Wharf footprint. The other 95% is hotels, restaurants, bars, sky-high terraces, event spaces, and public parkland. This is not a casino with a hotel attached - it is a city within a city, and the gaming floor is one part of a much larger story.
Our construction journey began in March 2018 and, after COVID-19 delays, we opened on 29 August 2024 as part of a multi-staged launch. That same weekend, the Neville Bonner Bridge opened - giving visitors a direct pedestrian link between Queen's Wharf, South Bank, and the city's cultural precinct. It was also the weekend Brisbane's old Treasury Casino closed its doors for good.
The numbers speak for themselves: A$3.6 billion invested, nearly 3,000 staff, over 80% of construction contracts awarded to Queensland businesses, and a precinct projected to draw 1.4 million additional visitors to the state each year - with the 2032 Olympic Games still to come. At full build-out, Queen's Wharf is expected to support 8,000 jobs in total.
The development is a joint venture between The Star Entertainment Group, Chow Tai Fook Enterprises, and Far East Consortium. And that's not the end of it—new restaurants, shops, and residential towers will open in 2026.
Both versions are built to deliver at the highest level - but they serve different moments and different needs.

The Star Brisbane Casino app runs natively on both iOS and Android, putting every game, every active promotion, and every account management tool into a pocket-sized format. Performance is sharp, the layout adapts cleanly to any screen size, and nothing is stripped out compared to what desktop users access.
Download is handled directly through our website: head to the mobile section, choose your device, and work through the installation steps - the whole process takes only a few minutes.
For players who prefer not to install a dedicated app, The Star Brisbane Casino mobile site covers the full platform without a download. Every game, every active promotion, and every account feature loads directly through your browser - Safari and Chrome both perform consistently across iOS and Android, with no reduction in game quality, speed, or account functionality. If you are switching between devices regularly, the browser version handles that without any extra steps.
Most casino floors are built to keep you in. The Star Brisbane Casino is built to remind you where you are. Floor-to-ceiling glass, natural light across the tables, and open balconies overlooking the Brisbane River and city skyline make us one of the few gaming floors in the world where the view competes with the game.
The floor runs 24 hours a day. In numbers: 1,600 electronic gaming machines and 92 table and poker games in total, including 11 dedicated poker tables. Table games span blackjack, roulette, baccarat, craps, Sic Bo, and more - with multiple variants across most formats. Pokie players will find popular linked jackpots, including Golden Dollars, Lightning Link, and Players Choice.
For members at the right tier, the floor extends further:
Two rooms, two levels of access - both a significant step away from the main floor in atmosphere and service.
The Star Brisbane Casino VIP programme is free to join and starts delivering from your very first visit.

Our online catalogue is built for players who know what they want and those still figuring it out. Whatever your format - pokies, fast games, or live tables - there is enough depth here to keep the sessions interesting.
The Star Brisbane pokies catalogue covers every format the modern market produces - from three-reel classics that get out of your way to feature-heavy titles built around cascading mechanics and six-figure jackpots.
Whatever pace you play at, there is a format here that fits.
Every title in The Star Brisbane Casino online fast games section runs on provably fair technology - every result is independently auditable and fully transparent.
The Star Brisbane online casino streams real-time play from professional dealers directly to your screen in high definition. For players who prefer setting their own pace, the self-directed table games section covers the same titles without a live host.
Available live and self-directed formats:
Our Daily Riot tournament resets every 24 hours - fresh leaderboard, fresh prizes, no gaps in the schedule.
Our online platform carries everything - every game, every promotion, every account feature - to players no matter where they happen to be. This is not a pared-back version of the resort experience. It is a complete product built on the same principles that define what we do in Brisbane. Sign up, verify, and you are inside the full catalogue in a matter of minutes.
Three deposits to get started, a promotion on every day of the week, and a prize draw that enters you automatically - The Star Brisbane bonus calendar is one of the busiest in the Australian market. Here is everything currently on the table.
Three deposits, three separate match bonuses, and free spins at every stage - the welcome package is structured to grow with you rather than front-load everything into a single offer.
The Star Brisbane free spins are available every single day of the week, not just as a one-off welcome gesture - the schedule below runs on a permanent cycle with no gaps.
Every qualifying deposit automatically earns draw tickets toward The Star Brisbane free spins weekly prize pool - no registration or opt-in needed. Each week, 51 winners are selected at random and credited with free spins directly to their account: one player takes the top prize of 300 spins, five runners-up receive 175 each, fifteen winners get 75 each, and thirty more walk away with 30 spins apiece. The more you deposit, the larger your ticket stack heading into each draw.
Twenty-four named ranks, three brackets, one direction - upward. The programme is built around a straightforward principle: the more active your account, the stronger the returns at every stage.
The two products run on separate systems with their own registration flows and login credentials. If you want to use both, you will need to create an account for each independently. Tier status and benefits earned at the physical venue do not carry across to your online account automatically.
A standing no deposit offer is not part of our regular promotions calendar, but we do issue surprise rewards to active members from time to time - these can take the form of bonus funds, free spins, or cashback credits issued without a deposit requirement. Checking your account notifications and the Bonus Page regularly is the most reliable way to catch these as they appear.
All transactions and account information on our platform are secured with industry-standard encryption. Identity verification is applied at the point of registration and again before withdrawals are processed, protecting both our members and the integrity of the platform. Full details on how we handle your data are set out in our privacy documentation.
