Other favorite sports venues include Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre for Bullets basketball, Sleeman Centre for Queensland Firebrids netball, and The Gabba for cricket with the Queensland Bulls and Australian rules football with the Brisbane Lions.
No trip to Brisbane is complete without taking in some of the city’s best views. If you’re feeling adventurous, experience the Story Bridge Adventure Climb, one of only three bridge climbs in the world. Otherwise, head to Mount Coot-tha Lookout, for a romantic evening watching the sunset over Brisbane.
