While Melbourne, New York, Berlin and Buenos Aires, among other cities, are leading the world when it comes to beautifying their streets with art, Brisbane isn’t slouching far behind. In fact, with each passing edition of the annual street art festival, the city is climbing the ranks of street art hotspots around the globe.
Returning to its roots in 2024 with its ninth edition, Brisbane Street Art Festival kicks off on Saturday, May 4 and will continue until Sunday, May 19.
Over the month, you can check out live murals, exhibitions, workshops, and a few artist talks as well.
The sixteen-day festival also includes music and performances with a huge closing party at Felons Beer Hall on Saturday, May 18.
You’ll be able to learn some new skills, too, with an aerosol masterclass or graffiti-writing workshop.
