Festival Garden
Presented by Brisbane Festival
Brisbane Festival’s favourite playground!
Your inner-city Festival playground, the place to gather, be delighted, and wowed is back.
With food, wine, installations, and live performances, our riverside place of celebration will return to South Bank for 20 days and nights.
The gateway to the wonder of Festival, the Festival Garden is a wondrous world that is playful by day and cheeky by night.
The Festival Gardens will become the central hub for your pre-show Fashion Freak Show experience. Come and enjoy the festival atmosphere throughout September.
Brisbane City Council proudly supports the Festival Garden, South Bank.
The Festival Garden is supported through the Giving Program by Paul, Susan & Kate Taylor.

ChronoHARP
Come and be immersed in a moment of creativity and connection - As the audience interacts with the work the light will transform from a white prism to a colourful spectacle, culminating with a light and sound show.
Meeanjin Songlinez
This is more than a concert; it’s a respectful celebration, an homage, and a powerful amplification of First Nations voices. Join us in honouring and embracing the cultural richness and creative brilliance of Meeanjin Songlinez.
SeamTogether
SeamTogether aims to create connections to our clothing and spark ideas of how to transform garments or fix them to give them new life. Part performance, part making space, SeamTogether is a hands-on experience for all ages.
