Sono Lumo — Festive Nights of Sound & Light

Overview

When Brisbane's Christmas plans were revealed for 2024, filling the CBD and South Bank with festive cheer, a new addition to the lineup of events stood out: Sono Lumo — Festive Nights of Sound & Light, Queen's Wharf's addition to the seasonal fun. How does the River City's newest inner-city riverside precinct get merry and jolly? With a free audiovisual show accompanied by DJs and roaming live performances, as well as food and drink pop-ups.

Since Wednesday, December 4, running 5–11pm Wednesday–Sunday, this has been Queen's Wharf's end-of-year gift to Brisbane. Taking place until Sunday, December 15, Sono Lumo features an hourly four-part visual journey called Carols Rewired, which is dazzling the precinct's patch of the waterfront — plus an EDM soundtrack with some festive nods, as programmed DJ Young Franco.

Head by for the full experience — including Fat Noodle, Lúc Lắc, Cucina Regina and Babblers on food duty — or, if you're even remotely in the vicinity, you'll be able to spot the Christmas glow from afar.

Carols Rewired lights up at 7.30pm, 8.30pm and 9.30pm each evening. The performances and DJ sets kick off from 5.30pm, with Standing Ovation, Mr Smith, DJ Harley Girl, Electro Swiggety, Jarrod Costello, DJ Sunoe, Liam Connor, DJ Sammy G, DJ Kessin, DJ Varnan, Bella Vita, DJ Boris Maskoff, The Kite String Tangle, DJ Madan, Elska featuring Cutloose, DJ Tasha Lee, Yena featuring DJ Neish and DJ Della Rix on the lineup across Sono Lumo's second week.
