Brisbane 2032 organisers have celebrated six years to go until the 2032 Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games with a special unveiling of the OMEGA Countdown Clock.
Located in the heart of Brisbane’s Queen Street Mall, the OMEGA Countdown Clock is anticipated to become a landmark attraction, drawing thousands of visitors and Games fans in the years ahead while building excitement for Brisbane 2032 and serving as a lasting symbol of the countdown to Queensland hosting the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Brisbane 2032 Organising Committee President Andrew Liveris joined a host of the Games Delivery Partners and athletes including Brisbane Lord Mayor Adrian Schrinner, Country Manager of The Swatch Group Australia Megan Parker and Olympian and OMEGA Ambassador Emma McKeon to celebrate the milestone.
“Time has been ticking towards our Games and today, OMEGA has officially unveiled a Countdown Clock to aid us in remaining on track and reminding the world that in six years’ time, our city, state and nation will host the Olympic and Paralympic Games,” Mr Liveris said “We’ve achieved a lot to date and there’s plenty more that we’ll deliver together.
“From legacy infrastructure to Emblems revealed, our Sports Programme and venues confirmed to the design of medals, mascots and more.
“The next six years will pass by quickly and OMEGA’s Countdown Clock revealed today makes our moment in time even more real.”
“It’s incredibly exciting to see the Countdown Clock unveiled and to know that the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games is now just six years away" said six-time Olympic gold medallist and Omega Ambassador Emma McKeon As an athlete, I understand how quickly those years can pass, and for so many current and future athletes, the road to a home Olympic Games is already well underway.”
