Living in Brisbane newsletter

With Christmas around the corner, you can almost hear the sleigh bells ring as you read our bumper 12-page edition of Living in Brisbane for December 2024 and January 2025! 

From the lights on our iconic City Hall to community carols in the park, there’s plenty of free and affordable ways for everyone to join in and celebrate the magic of Christmas in Brisbane. 

As the weather warms up and the year winds down, there’s no better time to visit our libraries, find some boredom-busting school holiday fun and stay cool in the pool with our well-loved $2 Summer Dips. 

Find out how to be one of the first to cross Brisbane’s newest (and tallest) bridge as the Kangaroo Point Bridge opens, what’s happening with our roads and transport, and top spots to reconnect with nature. 

Importantly, read about how you can prepare your family and home for severe weather. 

All this and more in our latest Living in Brisbane.
