Residents and sporting organisations still have the chance to share their thoughts on the future of Wagga Wagga's Exhibition Centre, located on the corner of Kooringal Road and Copland Street; the public submissions are open until Monday 20 October 2025.

"We want to say 'thank you' to everyone who has already taken the time to get involved in this consultation process and we encourage those who haven't voiced their ideas yet to provide their input over the coming week," Mr Walsh said.
"This is your opportunity to tell us what you like or value about the Exhibition Centre, what improvements you think could be made, and what you would like to see included in this high-quality sporting, community and entertainment space into the future.
"Your feedback will play a vital role in helping to shape the development of the concept Masterplan for the precinct, so get involved and make a submission."
