About

Brisbane Open brings to life design, art, architecture, the open spaces between buildings, social history, and local culture by offering topical walks. We welcome Brisbane locals, international and interstate visitors, and special interest groups, including schools.
Brisbane Open provides tours and experiences year-round for a fee. Its purpose is in deeper engagement in cultural tourism for Brisbane. As a not for profit, Brisbane Open raises funds to contribute to the viability of the free annual weekend, Brisbane Open House.
