Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre

Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre

Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre is one of Australia's largest, fully integrated purpose built convention, exhibition and special event venues. Perfectly situated in Brisbane and adjacent to the cultural precincts, this multi-award winning venue boasts modern facilities with an extensive choice of the very latest convention equipment.

Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre is located in the popular South Bank precinct, which encompasses an area of 125.5 hectares just across the Brisbane River from the city’s CBD. There is something for everyone at South Bank including a 17-hectare sub-tropical parkland, a rainforest boardwalk, picnic and barbecue areas, a weekend art and craft market and a beautiful riverfront promenade, as well as shops, bars, restaurants and cafes.

South Bank is also Brisbane’s arts precinct - home to the Queensland Art Gallery, Queensland Performing Arts Centre, Queensland Museum, Opera Queensland, Queensland Theatre Company and State Library.


South Bank Beach

South Bank also houses Streets Beach, a unique artificial swimming beach overlooking the Brisbane River and the city’s CBD. Sub-tropical trees and exotic plants surround the beach, which is patrolled seven days a week by experienced, professional lifeguards. The lagoon contains enough water to fill five Olympic swimming pools and the 4000 cubic metres of sand surrounding the beach is topped up every year with an additional 70 tonnes of sand sourced from Moreton Bay to ensure it is kept in its pristine condition.

A year-round events calendar ensures there is always plenty to see and experience.
