What we do
A Focus on Sport & Entertainment Precincts
Cenfield is a private development and investment-management platform specialising in the design, structuring, and delivery of large-scale mixed-use precincts, -anchored sport, and entertainment and cultural infrastructure. .
Our mandate is to deliver nationally significant civic and community assets, such as stadiums, arenas, and urban-renewal districts, through private capital structures that minimise reliance on government funding while generating institution-grade risk-adjusted returns for investors.
Operating as a full-spectrum development management and asset origination group, we integrate design excellence with disciplined financial governance from feasibility through to stabilised asset performance. Our model combines the rigour of infrastructure-style investment with the creativity of placemaking, aligning social outcomes with commercial performance.
We embed cultural engagement principles into every stage of delivery, ensuring projects respect local heritage while meeting global benchmarks for sustainability and innovation.

Auckland Stadium at Te Tōangaroa, Auckland
Te Tōangaroa is one of New Zealand’s most ambitious private urban-regeneration projects: a 55,000-seat National Stadium integrated with hotels, offices apartments, healthcare, education, and retail. It will transform 18.6 hectares of former railyards behind Spark Arena into a vibrant city quarter, supported by public transport connectivity and a continuous open-space network extending to the Waitematā Harbour. Delivered on under a ground lease with Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, the project combines commercial scale with cultural authenticity and community aspirations, ensuring cultural engagement principles and embedded throughout the design and delivery.
The precinct comprises approximately 804,000 m² of Gross Floor Area, as a a carbon-positive, socially inclusive framework. A semi-retractable, Māori-inspired stadium roof will form the precinct’s architectural centrepiece, surrounded by 23 buildings across development 17 lots built in two key phases over 15–20 years, targeted to commence in 2026.
All project details are subject to ongoing stakeholder engagement, regulatory approvals, and final investment decisions. The development is currently in the planning and proposal stage.
Stadium at Brisbane Northshore

Brisbane Northshore 2050 is a private investment led proposal to transform 126.7 hectares of waterfront land in Brisbane’s eastern suburbs into a world class precinct. Designed as a global exemplar, it will integrate within a health and wellness-focused environment, driving transformational community outcomes and inspiring behavioural change towards active, healthy living. Northshore Hamilton has already been identified by the State as the site for the 2032 Games Athletes Village. Given its waterfront location, connection to the Brisbane River, and intrinsic value to the city, we believe , Northshore can be far more than a housing solution. It has the potential to deliver a meaningfully Games legacy for Brisbane.
This concept is subject to further planning, stakeholder engagement, regulatory approvals, and partnership agreements.
The project is currently in the proposal stage and has not received final approval.
