Emergency services are responding to a dramatic fire at the Brisbane Broncos’ home stadium after flames were seen rising from a section of the venue earlier this evening.

According to initial reports, thick smoke began billowing from the eastern stands shortly after 6:30 p.m., prompting an immediate evacuation of staff and nearby personnel. Fire and Rescue crews arrived within minutes, establishing safety perimeters as firefighters worked to contain the blaze.

Witnesses in the area described seeing flashing emergency lights and hearing sirens as authorities moved quickly to secure the scene. “You could see the smoke from blocks away,” said one onlooker. “Everyone was told to move back for safety.”

At this stage, there are no reports of serious injuries, and officials have confirmed that no players or spectators were inside the stadium at the time of the incident. The cause of the fire remains unknown, though investigators are expected to examine whether electrical faults or maintenance work may have played a role.

Brisbane Broncos officials released a brief statement saying they are cooperating fully with emergency services and prioritizing safety. “Our thoughts are with everyone involved, and we are grateful for the swift response of first responders,” the statement read.

The extent of the damage is still being assessed, and upcoming events at the stadium may be affected pending safety inspections.
