Travel and Accommodation

Queensland’s energising capital city feels like a warm welcome home from your first visit.

A place to relax, recharge and get outdoors, Brisbane’s refreshingly laid-back approach to city living makes soaking up culture and tasting nightlife feel like a holiday. From sunrise bike rides to sundowners at a brewery, life revolves around the river, year-round. And a quick jump from the city you’ll discover epic islands, awe-inspiring national parks and World Heritage subtropical rainforest.

Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre is a convention centre in Brisbane, Australia. It is located in South Brisbane and occupies most of the block formed by Grey Street, Melbourne Street, Merivale Street, and Glenelg Street.
