Parking and Drop Off
From mid-July 2022 until 2024 road directions and access around QPAC and the Queensland Culture Centre will change due to ongoing Brisbane Metro construction.
One of the most significant changes will be the permanent closure of Melbourne St between Grey St and Hope St to general vehicular traffic.
Access to the Cultural Centre car parks and the QPAC drop off zone opposite the South Brisbane train station will be via Montague Road as seen on the map below. Parking for people with mobility difficulties is available in all car parks.
Please be aware that the set down areas have limited capacity and we recommend you allow sufficient time for possible delays.
For more information about parking please visit our Getting here page.
