The immersive hit of last year’s Brisbane Festival is back for 2024, and this year it’s been reimagined. Lightscape is ready to dazzle and wow audiences once more with its multisensory spectacle of light, colour and sound.
This is your chance to see Brisbane’s City Botanic Gardens in a whole new light, with thie iconic gardens full of breathtaking installations created by acclaimed local and international artists.
A special feature of Brisbane’s Lightscape will be two incredible sculptural installations created by Queensland First Nations artists Paul Bong (aka Bindur Bullin) and Michelle Yeatman.
Grab your family or a group of friends and take yourselves on an after-dark journey of wonder and whimsy. The trail itself is about two kilometres long and features internationally acclaimed fan fave installations as well as brand new works to charm a whole new audience (or returning visitors).
Fancy making a whole night of it? You can grab a bite to eat before the show, with the entrance of the park festooned with food trucks full of delicacies and foodie faves.
Wander beneath towering tree canopies illuminated in colour, stroll beneath larger-than-life flowers, alongside shining neon roots, and through dynamic glowing tunnels.
Whether you want a very mindful, very demure garden experience, or if you’re looking for the ultimate backdrop for aesthetic Tiktok content, Lightscape is sure to brighten up your night.
Lightscape, until October 12. From 5:45pm til late. City Botanic Gardens, Cnr Albert and Alice Streets, Brisbane City. Tickets from $24-$58.
