A Magical Time to Visit Brisbane


Brisbane’s Christmas stocking is packed full to the brim with a spectacular line-up of free events this festive season.

The whole family can come and celebrate the magic of Christmas with time-honoured traditions as well as having the opportunity to create some new ones. There will be Christmas carols, fashion showcases, food and craft markets, children’s workshops and of course, photos with the main man himself - Santa.

From Friday 3 to Friday 24 December seasonal harmonies will fill the Queen Street Mall with a Christmas Songbook showcase and spread into the city streets with the Merry Melodies pop-up music program. The ever popular IGA Lord Mayor’s Carols in the City on Saturday 4 December will see some of Australia’s biggest stars light up the Riverstage.

On Friday 3 December the Burnett Lane Fashion Showcase will add a touch of style to the festive season. Members of the public will be able to see a stunning selection of Brisbane’s emerging and established fashion designers bring one of Brisbane City Council’s newest revitalised spaces to life.

Also on Friday 3 December the Lighting of the Christmas Tree in King George Square will feature excerpts from Queensland Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker.

On Friday 10 December some of Brisbane’s best international musicians will take visitors on a World by Night tour. King George Square and Burnett Lane will be abuzz with music, food and gifts from across the globe. Visitors can expect to enjoy a special performance by the winner of 2010’s Q Song World Music Category.
