Things To Do This Weekend 28-30 Nov
This weekend go carolling with Marina Prior and David Campbell, be witness to Sigmund Freud’s last session with CS Lewis or an exclusive showing of The One That I Love in a boutique cinema. Then drift away with Mahler’s 3rd Concerto, shop at QAGOMA’s Christmas market, and reminisce about the Valley’s past in a mini cultural vintage fest.
Take in some fresh cool bay breezes with one of our great bay walks, go houseboating on the Tweed or homewares and gift shopping at Sandgate and discover the hottest new indoor mystery game that has just opened in Brisbane after taking the world by storm.
Those with children can catch Peppa Pig and friends live on stage, visit Brisbane’s best children’s market and see Brisbane’s Christmas tree light up in King George Square.
