The new purpose-built Gungahlin Community Centre will open on Monday 6 July 2026.

Construction is now complete, and final touches are being added.

The new facility has been built in response to community feedback. The local community and key stakeholders were consulted during the planning process to ensure the centre met their needs.

It is located on the corner of Efkarpidis Street and Gungahlin Place in the Gungahlin Town Centre. This ensures easy access to public transport with light rail nearby and a bus stop out the front. There is also nearby parking and bike facilities.

The new building offers a range of inclusive spaces. The community can hire these spaces for meetings, events, programs and more.

It features:
