Wynnum’s Hidden Gem
Discover something bold… something new…
fun things borrowed… just for you!
For over 40 years the Waterloo Bay Leisure Centre has been a central hub for the community; hosting events, classes, and gatherings for young and old.
Concerts are held regularly in our auditorium (which is also a popular hire with locals looking for an awesome party venue), classes and activities are held in our various activities rooms, and our bi-monthly markets which take over the entire centre (including the beautiful Shire Clerk’s Cottage) keep going from strength to strength!
As one of Wynnum’s most prominent not-for-profit organisations, we are proud to serve our community. Staffed wholly by volunteers, every cent raised goes towards keeping the centre open to ensure we can continue providing a wide range of activities and entertainment for members.
