Brisbane Airport International Lantern Garden

To add a bit of twinkle to your Brisbane Festival experience, head along to South Bank’s Cultural Forecourt for the Brisbane Airport International Lantern Garden.

Each night of the festival, the Lantern Garden will illuminate after 6pm. The free show will feature lanterns of all different cultures, as designed by celebrated creative director, Tony Assness.

There is paid parking available at the South Bank Parklands and the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, both of which are a short walk away from the Cultural Forecourt, which is situated along the Brisbane River. Public transport is also ideal, with the Cultural Centre busway located nearby, as well as the South Brisbane train station. For your fill of "ooh" and "ahh" be sure to check it out.
