Something smooth, bold and built for speed just landed – and it’s ready for new tricks and fresh kicks.
The completed Maleny Skate Park upgrade delivers a dynamic new space for skaters, scooter riders, BMXers and spectators.
Located at the Maleny Showgrounds, the revamped facility features flat banks, hips, transition ramps, ledges and rails. The previously upgraded half-pipe was retained and integrated into the new design.
The transformation was shaped through extensive consultation between Sunshine Coast Council and the Maleny community and local riders, ensuring the final result reflected the needs and spirit of the region.
Division 5 Councillor Winston Johnston said the project was a testament to community collaboration.
“This is more than just a skate park – it’s a place of connection, creativity and movement,” Cr Johnston said.
“We’re proud to deliver a facility that encourages active lifestyles and brings people together.”
The park now includes new seating and landscaping, making it a welcoming space for families and spectators.
Designed for all skill levels, it offers a safe and exciting environment for everyone to enjoy.
This skate park development was funded with the support of the Queensland Government in association with Sunshine Coast Council.

“It gives our youth a safe, inclusive space to keep active, build confidence, and connect with friends. I’ve been advocating for this project for many years, and I’m proud to see it become a reality.”
Cr Johnston thanked the Maleny community for its patience and input throughout the design and construction process.
“This is a great example of how we are connecting and engaging with our communities to build a better future for everyone.”
