Overview

You've been to West End, but have you been to West Village? Given that the latter hasn't opened yet, that's actually a trick question — but come May 1, you'll want to flock to Brisbane's newest hangout.

With apartments, shops, offices, bars and wide-open public areas built around the old Peters Ice Cream factory, the Boundary Street Markets site is about to become even more of a vibrant community hub than it already is. And with an official launch to end all official launches, it's going to start its new life in the style locals have become accustomed to: funky and fun.

Live music from Bree de Rome, Henry James and TJ Quinton will transform the space into a ready-made celebration, while state-of-the-art light projections will provide visuals to match the smooth sounds. Roving performances from the Ice Cream Crew and Jaran Indigenous Dance Group will help every inch of the place burst with entertainment, and there are shows by the Ultrafantastics and the Rooftops at the Motor Room, too. Welcome to the neighbourhood indeed.
