Brisbane Arts Theatre Celebrates 90 Years of Theatre in 2026

Brisbane Arts Theatre is proud to announce a landmark milestone in 2026, celebrating 90 years of continuous contribution to Queensland’s cultural landscape.

Founded in 1936, Brisbane Arts Theatre has been a home for bold storytelling, emerging artists, and passionate audiences for nearly a century. From classic dramas to innovative new works, the company has remained dedicated to making theatre accessible, vibrant, and community-driven.

The 90th anniversary year has begun with the launch of their new website, honouring the artists, volunteers, and audiences who have shaped the theatre’s remarkable legacy with a photo archive showing images from many of the productions dating back to its inception in 1936. 

The 2026 season will be announced soon which will reflect Brisbane Arts Theatre’s ongoing commitment to nurturing future generations of performers and creatives.

As one of Australia’s longest-running community theatres, Brisbane Arts Theatre continues to be a vital creative hub, inspiring imagination and fostering a lifelong love of the performing arts.
