Overview
As part of the 2025 Brisbane Open House program, QPAC is proud to once again open its doors for a rare behind-the-scenes look at one of Queensland’s most iconic cultural institutions.
For over 40 years, QPAC has been the home of live performance in Queensland – a place where audiences and artists connect, learn, and share stories. Welcoming over 1.5 million visitors annually to more than 1,200 performances, QPAC plays a vital role in shaping a more inclusive and resilient community through the power of the performing arts.
Join us on Saturday, 19 July 2025 for a series of guided tours running every 20 minutes from 9am to 11:20am.
Go beyond the auditorium and experience what it takes to bring live performance to life – from the stage to backstage, and everything in between. Bookings are essential. Come and discover the architecture, history, and creative heartbeat of QPAC.
