Banyo precinct
In 2023-24, Brisbane City Council will provide hands-on support to assist the Banyo retail precinct as part of the Growing Precincts Together program.
This will involve:
- business/vacancy assessments
- a survey to gather feedback and ideas about the precinct
- a precinct launch event
- precinct connection opportunities
- hands-on support from Council to Promote, Support, Refresh and Activate the precinct
- regular e-newsletter updates to businesses.
Customer and business survey
To inform Council’s support for the Banyo retail precinct, we invited businesses, workers and customers to share their thoughts about the precinct, including what they value most and ideas to promote and activate the precinct. The survey closed on 17 September 2023.
Precinct launch event
Banyo businesses were invited to attend a launch event about the Growing Precincts Together Program in the Banyo precinct, which was held on 18 October 2023.
At the event, Council’s Economic Growth and Activation Team shared information about:
- analysis of the precinct, including business vacancies and business mix
- feedback received from a survey of the Banyo precinct
- initial ideas and inspiration to promote, activate and refresh the precinct.
- possible support programs for businesses in the precinct.
Attendees had the opportunity to ask questions, network with other business owners and meet with Council officers.
Precinct connection opportunities
Banyo retail precinct businesses will be invited to connect with each other and Council officers on a regular basis. Further information will be provided soon.

Promote, Support, Refresh and Activate
Council’s Economic Growth and Activation team will work with the Banyo retail precinct to deliver initiatives under the key actions of Promote, Support, Refresh and Activate.
This will include offering businesses in the Banyo precinct the opportunity to apply for a range of free one-on-one business support programs. This diverse suite of programs will support businesses to promote and activate their business with the aim to attract new visitors to the precinct.
