Brisbane Gig Guide
Brisbane's live entertainment scene is centred on Fortitude Valley, which holds the highest concentration of live music venues in the state. The Tivoli, The Triffid, and Ric's Bar anchor the strip, supported by smaller rooms on Brunswick and Ann streets that run programming most nights. West End carries a different character — folk, jazz, and acoustic-focused venues with a community bent. The CBD fills in with comedy clubs, theatre spaces, and larger touring venues. Brisbane has grown as a touring market over the past decade, with national and international acts now treating it as a primary stop.
