Brisbane Festival

Overview

We’re not all that bad here in ye olde Bristown, in fact, most of the time we’re quite good! Because of how good we are, we definitely deserve a three-week pat on the back - ergo, Brisbane Festival. From the 3^rd to the 24^th, you won’t be able to get away from all the ridiculously amazing events that our little river city has to offer. There’s the Courier-Mail Spiegeltent, which will be housing the likes of Kimbra & Mosman Adler, Andy Bull & Emma Louise, Graveyard Train, Lior and more during its stint in King George Square.

Then there's South Bank, which will be the best vantage point for the Festival’s opening event – Riverfire. That is, if you can manage to elbow your way through the million-people-deep pit of people plastered (literally and figuratively) on the riverside. Or, for the more claustrophobically inclined, it’s streamed on the telly as well. That Brisbane Festival team have got it covered!

There’s a ridiculous amount of other things to do as well, too many for me to mention in such a small article. My suggestion: check out the Brisbane Festival website and organise how you’ll celebrate our city for the next few weeks. Happy Festival-ing!
