A relaxed casual river city, Brisbane is unpretentious and has an easy-going attitude. The curving Brisbane River, waterways that crisscross our suburbs, beautiful bushland and rolling hills make it one of the most biodiverse capital cities in Australia. Positioned as one of the world’s most welcoming cities, Brisbane is always evolving with new offerings and vibrant entertainment.

As Australia’s new world city, Brisbane is built on a strong foundation of infrastructure. Assets include: a world-class international airport; a busy international port; a comprehensive road and rail network; a fully-integrated public transport and ticketing system; vibrant entertainment and sporting venues; and an exceptional range of accommodation options.

Internationally recognised and current title holder of the world’s best convention centre, the BCEC is Australia’s most awarded meetings and events venue. The BCEC’s convenient location in downtown Brisbane in the heart of the arts and entertainment precinct at South Bank offers direct access to all forms of public transport.
