"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often
we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one
which has been opened for us."

Brisbane is an alive, bustling city of 1.6 million people
featuring all the requisite offerings of Australia's fastest
growing capital city. It boasts the largest shopping precinct
between Sydney and Singapore, a significant cultural hub on the
river's southern banks, a thriving dining, nightlife and live
music scene, and an abundance of lush, expansive parklands, city
gardens, and riverside and seaside suburbs.
Renowned for fabulous year-round weather, Brisbane prides itself
on its cosmopolitan lifestyle, offering a delectable array of
quality alfresco dining restaurants, open-air shopping malls,
outdoor bars, sidewalk cafes and riverside markets. Offering
conference and meetings guests a wide range of options for that
valuable down time.
There's an easy ambience to the city, that's both friendly and
welcoming to delegates, and immediately comfortable and
recognisable to those who live there. The subtropical climate
encourages a lifestyle of fresh, contemporary fashion-styles,
healthy, outdoors-living, open-style houses and lush, tropical
vegetation. People are noticeably happy and comfortable in
Brisbane, with a large proportion of the population enjoying a
high-quality, affordable lifestyle.
The core of the city, and an asset that many believe is the
city's greatest, is its people. A young, vibrant, creative and
eclectic community reside in the river city, cultivating a rich
climate of modern culture, spurring the talents of some of
Australia's finest musical acts such as Powderfinger, george,
Regurgitator, Pete Murray and more. The city's creative
industries are thriving, with any number of private galleries
and theatres attracting world-class performers and artisans,
such as the Philip Bacon Galleries, the Judith Wright Centre and
the Brisbane Powerhouse.
Adding to the easiness of lifestyle in Brisbane is the
heightened accessibility to many aspects within the city itself,
as well as many surrounding world-class tourist attractions,
beach and hinterland locations.
The physical layout to the city is such that many different
aspects or entertainment venues are within a short walking
distance. The city's domestic and international airports are
located only 15 minutes from the CBD, connected by a dedicated
rail link (the only one of its kind in Australia), and toll-free
highways.
Under an hour, visitors can visit any number of fantastic
tourist destinations and attractions such as Australia Zoo, and
the Sunshine Coast, Dreamworld, Movie World, Sea World and the
Gold Coast. Stradbroke and Moreton Islands are naturally superb
island reserves, off the east coast of Brisbane's foreshore in
Moreton Bay.
