South Bank

  • The southern banks of the river play host to Brisbane’s thriving cultural heart, which now has a solid reputation for securing large-scale musicals and international art exhibitions. South Bank also has a more playful side and is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike who come to the parklands to bask in the glorious Queensland sunshine, swim in the man-made beach or relax at the cafés, parks and boardwalks.
  • Fresh breezes and sun-kissed water make very pleasant companions at some of the city’s best riverside restaurants.
  • Experience all things Greek at the iconic Paniyiri Greek Festival!
