Brisbane Kids- the official guide to child friendly brisbane

  • AboutBrisbane Kids Creative was created by me! Ngaire Stirling. I wont pretend to talk in the third person about myself, instead let me tell you a bit about me and how 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came about. At the time the domain name 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for purchase I was a stay at home mum in the middle of a degree centred around journalism and PR. a couple of years earlier I had been contemplating returning to my previous career in marketing management and for a while I even tried. 3 months into a new role and it was clear that I had no passion for my old life and to make the decision to quit easier, my almost 2 year old at the time was not coping with childcare. So, as a family we made the decision for me to return to becoming a stay at home mum. About 1 years later or so.. 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for sale. My friends had often commented on my ability to know exactly what was happening in Brisbane for kids. I had my son enrolled in some awesome activities and we often visited some great destinations. I loved finding fun things for us to doโ€ฆ

Below we have given you an overview of selected events throughout Brisbane and surrounding areas, though there are many more happening each year.

Please note – all events are subject to change so make sure you check the RSL website before attending to ensure current details are correct.

Brisbane City ANZAC Services & Marches 2026

Anzac Day Dawn Service – Brisbane City

Every year on the 25th of April, an Anzac Day Dawn Service is held in Brisbane City starting at 4.28am sharp. The event is held at Brisbane City’s Shrine of Remembrance, Anzac Square, located between Ann and Adelaide Streets.

Find further details about Anzac Day in Brisbane.

Anzac Day Parade – Brisbane City

The Anzac Day Parade will be held on Adelaide Street, between George Street and Creek Street, from 9.45am – 12.30pm on the 25th of April.ย  The parade will feature former and current Australian Defence Force veterans and other groups.

Veterans and citizens unable to attend the parade can watch the event on ABC IView or LIVE ABC TV.

Find further details at ANZAC Day Parade.

The recommendation is to use public transport where possible to access the Parade area. The main form up area for veterans is a reasonable walk across the Victoria Bridge to Queens Park. Also from King George Square/Queen St busway levels to Adelaide Street for spectators as well as Central Station.ย Many of the CBD car parks are closed, however the King George Square car park remains accessible from Roma Street and is located close to Adelaide Street. Other car parks outside the vehicle closedown area are on Alice, Ann & Eagle Streets.

    You’ve put the Gold Coast link on the Sunshine Coast section too.

    I can’t wait! This will be fantastic. I’d like to encourage foreigners to also attend and pay homage to their own military personnel (current and past). Even though it is obviously tailored towards the Australian and New Zealand military contributions, it is an event that can bring us all together, no matter one’s race, religion or creed. Big ups to the event organisers. We must preserve tradition wherever possible in this modern world of ours.

    What about Brisbane West??

    • Brooke Powell

      Hi Jim, the events are sorted by north Brisbane (north of the river) and south Brisbane (south of the river), so many events to the west of Brisbane will be included in south of the river and Ipswich. Hope this helps.
