Brisbane blends laid-back vibes and an adventurous spirit, with modern amenities and natural beauty. From the scenic Moreton Bay islands to the picturesque hinterland, there's a variety of experiences that make it a unique destination ... whether it's dining outdoors by the river, enjoying the lush national parks, or hopping over to the nearby islands. There’s something refreshing about having so much natural beauty close to the city, and the combination of urban energy and nature makes it feel like the best of both worlds.
Being selected as the Host City for the 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games further emphasises Brisbane's growing influence on the world stage. It’s exciting to think about how the city will evolve over the next few years leading up to 2032.
