New Geelong stadium boss seeks more ‘music, cultural events’

“Delivering more major events” is a key priority for the new boss of Kardinia Park Stadium Trust.
Michael Brown put additional sport, music and cultural events on the stadium agenda after taking over from former trust chairman Steve Bracks this week.
Completing the stadium’s redevelopment and opening up the park to “great use by local community groups” were also priorities, Mr Brown said.
The stadium and park should become “a regional sports hub that services all sports in the Geelong and Barwon region and be a true community and business partner to Geelong,” he said.
