Done the above and need a change of pace? Relax in Brisbane’s picturesque parks – South Bank Parklands, Kangaroo Cliffs Park and the Brisbane City Botanic Gardens are not to be missed on any trip to the city, and offer the perfect opportunity to take a stroll, cycle, sunbathe or throw down a picnic blanket under a tree or by the water’s edge.
QPAC Unlocked
QPAC Unlocked is QPAC’s new show lineup to kick off its reopening this August. There are more unmissable music and theatre performances on the cards this spring if you’re looking for a memorable night out, with Queensland Performing Arts Centre’s COVID Safe Plan involving spaced seating, increased cleaning and designated social distancing markers.

GoMA, Queensland Museum and Museum of Brisbane
Want to explore Brisbane’s history, culture and arts scene? The Queensland Cultural Centre in Southbank includes the Gallery of Modern Art, Queensland Museum and Museum of Brisbane, which are FREE for the public to visit. Time slot bookings are, however, essential as each attraction is limiting capacity for the safety of all visitors.
