Queens Wharf Opening

Updated: Sep 12, 2024

The highly-anticipated opening of Brisbane's game-changing new Queens Wharf precinct finally has opened, with the first of several venues already launched.

Opening on that date will be the stunning The Star Grand hotel, and The Star Brisbane's incredible Sky Deck public viewing platform and main casino gaming room, as well as the Neville Bonner Bridge (connecting Queens Wharf to South Bank).

The first restaurants and bars in The Star Brisbane will also open on that date, including Sokyo (fine dining Japanese) and Luke Nguyen's Fat Noodle, as well as lavish cocktail bar Cherry, live entertainment venue Livewire and the massive Sports Bar.

More of the 50+ drinking and dining venues will open in September while future development stages to follow will include Rosewood and Dorsett hotels, the Velo Cafe and luxury retail outlets.
