So, Brisbane’s most anticipated event is always ready to deliver an explosion of artistic performances and experiences.
2023 Brisbane Festival
September 1 to 23
It is essential to understand that there are three Festival Precincts to visit. Festival Garden is Brisbane Festival’s spectacular entrance! In the heart of the South Bank Parklands, it is an inner-city fantasy of food, wine, entertainment, and exploration.
The Northshore Brisbane, an interactive riverfront hub for the Brisbane Festival, comes next. The district will come alive with live music, a pop-up riverside bar, and delectable meals as the sun goes down. Finally, for the Brisbane Festival, West Village is transformed with art that inspires, delights and disrupts. There’s always something tasty to eat when you’re there!
Aside from these three precincts, several Brisbane facilities host specific events, including Brisbane City Hall, Brisbane Powerhouse, the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, and many more. Below are some of the shows you can catch.
