Lunar New Year at Brisbane Quarter

Overview

When there's an occasion worth celebrating, Brisbane Quarter joins in. So, now that Lunar New Year is upon us for 2025, the inner-city precinct is doing just that. The CBD spot is marking the Year of the Snake with a day of roving lion dances and — in great news for your stomach — special menu options for a couple of weeks.

For the dances, you'll need to make a date on Wednesday, January 29. The performance is free, taking place at 7pm.

Between Tuesday, January 29–Monday, February 10, gathering the gang is recommended at Brisbane Phoenix. The restaurant is doing indulgent group feasts across the two weeks, including a ten-course version for six or ten people — for $1688 and $2288 respectively. On the menu: flaming lobster, salmon sashimi salad with flying fish caviar, steamed scampi, black moss dried scallop and oyster, slow-cooked pork hock with truffle oil and more.

Fancy an a la carte selection instead? That's also an option.
