Acknowledgement of Traditional Custodians

We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations, both First Nations and non-First Nations peoples, towards creating a better Queensland.

Overview

QPAC’s longest running event Spirit of Christmas returns this December to the iconic QPAC Concert Hall.

Three musical theatre stars Rachael Beck (Beauty and the Beast, Cabaret, The Sound of Music), Alinta Chidzey (Moulin Rouge! The Musical, CHICAGO, West Side Story), and Josh Piterman (Les Misérables and The Phantom of the Opera), will headline our most celebrated concert of the year!

Joined by special guests Waveney Yasso and Queensland Conservatorium musical theatre graduate Nick Smith, our star studded line up will be supported by the Queensland Symphony Orchestra and the Queensland Youth Orchestra, conducted by Simon Kenway, and the exquisite voices of the Spirit of Christmas Choir and Voices of Birralee.

QPAC’s Spirit of Christmas is a celebration of the true meaning of the festive season; an occasion to rejoice and reflect on the year that has passed and embrace the season’s enduring message of Peace, Love and Joy.

  • While Sydney has Carols in the Domain and Melbourne has its Carols by Candlelight, in Brisbane it is QPAC’s Spirit of Christmas.
