Suncorp Stadium General Manager Alan Graham to Step Down After 20 Years

Alan Graham, the long-serving General Manager of Suncorp Stadium, is preparing to retire after an extraordinary two decades of shaping the venue’s legacy. 



Since taking the helm in 2002, Mr Graham has not only overseen the transformation of Suncorp Stadium into one of Australia’s premier sporting and entertainment venues, but he’s also led the stadium through some of its most challenging moments, including the 2011 Queensland floods. 

His leadership has seen over 800 events at the 52,500-capacity stadium, from major sports fixtures to world-class concerts, and he leaves behind a legacy of innovation, resilience, and community involvement. Mr Graham’s retirement, set for July 2025, marks the end of an era for Suncorp, a venue he helped cement as a cornerstone of Queensland’s cultural and sporting life.

A Storied Career with Suncorp Stadium

Since being appointed General Manager in 2002, Mr Graham has overseen some of the most significant events in Brisbane’s history, including 27 State of Origin games, the highly successful NRL Magic Round, and numerous international sports events like the Manny Pacquiao vs. Jeff Horn fight. Under his guidance, Suncorp Stadium became not only a hub for rugby, but also a premier venue for concerts, starting with Robbie Williams in 2006 and later hosting global acts such as U2, Taylor Swift, Elton John, and Ed Sheeran.

One of Mr Graham’s notable achievements was introducing large-scale concerts to Suncorp, which changed the way the city experienced entertainment. From international pop stars to rock legends, the stadium has seen it all under his leadership. This innovation has helped bring global attention to Brisbane, elevating the city’s status as a prime destination for both sports and music fans.

Navigating Challenges and Building Community Bonds

Throughout his tenure, Mr Graham’s leadership was defined by his ability to handle adversity. Perhaps his most impressive feat was guiding Suncorp Stadium through the 2011 Queensland floods, when the venue was submerged, causing significant damage to its infrastructure. 

Despite the setback, Mr Graham and his team restored the stadium in record time, ensuring that only two events were lost. This resilience became a hallmark of his management style, as he continued to lead the stadium through other challenges, including weather-related disruptions and the iconic story of the Artie Beetson statue, which required creative problem-solving to complete.

Beyond the big events, Mr Graham has always placed a strong emphasis on community involvement. He spearheaded initiatives such as the Suncorp Stadium Annual Charity Golf Day and Christmas Day Lunch, both of which have raised substantial funds for local charities and provided meaningful support to disadvantaged Queenslanders. Over the years, these initiatives have become an integral part of the stadium’s identity, reinforcing its role as more than just a venue for entertainment and sports but as a vital part of the local community fabric.



The Road Ahead for Suncorp Stadium

As Mr Graham prepares to retire, ASM Global, the company that manages Suncorp Stadium, is already working on selecting his successor. Harvey Lister, Chairman of ASM Global, praised Mr Graham’s unique contributions to the venue, noting that his departure would be felt across the entire industry. Mr Graham himself reflected on his time at the stadium, remarking that shaping the history of Suncorp Stadium was one of the most meaningful aspects of his career.

Community Shows Strong Support for More Concerts at Suncorp Stadium

Milton could soon see more concerts and major events as the community overwhelmingly backs a proposal to double the annual concert cap at Suncorp Stadium.

Results from a recent public consultation reveal that over 75% of respondents living within the Lang Park Traffic Area, which includes Milton, either agreed or strongly agreed to permanently increase the number of concerts held at Suncorp Stadium from six to twelve per year.



The stadium, a landmark in Milton since its redevelopment in 2003, has been operating under a temporary increase to twelve concerts for 2023 and 2024. This change was implemented to capitalise on post-COVID-19 enthusiasm from concert promoters.

Member for Cooper Jonty Bush, whose electorate includes Milton, expressed satisfaction with the community’s response: “It’s fantastic having a world-class stadium in our own backyard and having world-class performers entertaining huge crowds here.”

Bush also noted that a proposal to count a series of concerts by a single performer as one event will not proceed, providing Milton residents with “greater certainty in relation to the maximum number of actual concerts that will be happening close to home.”

Suncorp Stadium General Manager Alan Graham acknowledged the local community’s role in the stadium’s success: “We appreciate the support and cooperation of our locals when big events happen and will continue to apply measures to minimise any impact on our neighbours.”

The proposed changes could have significant implications for Milton and surrounding areas. While the increased number of events promises economic benefits, it may also mean more frequent disruptions to local traffic and potentially increased noise levels on concert nights.

Minister for Tourism and Sport Michael Healy emphasised the broader impact: “These world-class stadia attract world-class performers and events. They play a vitally important role in Queensland’s sporting and cultural landscape, as well as growing tourism.”



The Queensland government will now consider all feedback before making any decisions about possible legislative amendments. For Milton residents, this could mean a busier, more vibrant local area, with up to twelve nights of world-class entertainment per year right on their doorstep.
