A brief introduction to Brisbane

Intriguing arts venues, diverse restaurants and cafes, and a thriving nightlife await those who visit the culture-rich city of Brisbane.

Begin your journey by exploring Brisbane’s creative side in the northern neighbourhoods of Spring Hill and Fortitude Valley. Here, you will find an interesting array of renowned art galleries, including the Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) and  Institute of Modern Art . Right around the corner is Brunswick Street, which is home to some of the city’s greatest street murals and graffiti art.

Food lovers will appreciate Brisbane’s rapidly expanding culinary scene, which features a diverse range of international flavours. Whether it’s the Asian restaurants and upscale cafes in Fortitude Valley or the European-inspired food found on Boundary Street, there is something for everyone. Once the sun sets, Fortitude Valley comes alive as it boasts some of the best bars and clubs in the city.

We also recommend venturing outside Brisbane as Queensland is a treasure trove brimming with memorable experiences, including numerous stunning beaches and quaint vineyards.
