List of tallest buildings in Oceania

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of the tallest buildings in Oceania[1] which measures all buildings to the highest architectural detail. This list does not include the Sky Tower in Auckland, which is taller than the buildings listed but is considered a freestanding structure instead.

The tallest building is the Q1, Gold Coast at 322.5m

Tallest buildings[]

This list ranks buildings in Oceania that stand at least 150 m (492 ft) tall, based on CTBUH height measurement standards. This includes spires and architectural details but does not include antenna masts. An equal sign (=) following a rank indicates the same height between two or more buildings.
