#CelebrateBrisbane River of Light
Brightening up the river for Brisbane Festival.
Overview
Every year, when Brisbane Festival rolls around, two things happen. Firstly, the city explodes with an array of arts, culture and music performances. Secondly, it explodes with colour and light thanks to a big riverside light show.
In 2018, the latter is called #CelebrateBrisbane River of Light — and while hashtags in event names deserve the cringes that they instantly inspire, the actual combination of water fountains, lights and lasers will inspire awe. A free 10-minute show taking place at 6.30pm, 8pm and 9.30pm each night between September 8–29, it's designed to spin the traditional story of the dreaming serpent that created Brisbane's brown snake of a waterway.
Catch it from the Arcadia precinct, on the South Bank Cultural Forecourt, over a few beverages.
