QPAC 40 OPEN DAYSunday, 31 August 2025, From 9am

QPAC is 40 years young and on Sunday, 31 August we’re opening our doors to the community in celebration of four decades of unforgettable performances and storytelling.

Join us at the QPAC 40 Open Day for a host of free activities – from Broadway Bingo on the Melbourne Street Green, to La bohème Tech Activations in the Lyric Theatre.

Witness the majesty of the Concert Hall’s Klais Grand Organ in full flight (hurry to claim your spot at one of two concerts) and add your mark to QPAC’s history through interactive art installations, including new work The Echoing Space by Penny Challen.

Kick back on the green to an afternoon of First Nations music from Toni Janke and Band and Tjaka.

Grab a map on the day and take a Self‑Guided Tour, or visit our fascinating Collections Exhibition in the Lyric Theatre Foyer, or seek out Pop‑Up Performances in unexpected places! View all of the free events here.

It’s your chance to lift the lid off QPAC and discover what goes on behind the curtains.

QPAC’s 40th celebrations are supported by 612 ABC Radio Brisbane.
