Queen’s Wharf Bikeway changes for Brisbane Festival 2025

During September, The Landing at Queen’s Wharf will be used for select events and event setup as part of the Brisbane Festival. The programme has 9 nights of events using this location, which bisects the Bicentennial Bikeway.

Bicycle Queensland has been informed that barriers will create a separation between walkers and riders, and that crowd control staff will be on hand to help direct pedestrians. As in any shared space, Bicycle Queensland encourages all users to reduce their speed as appropriate for the conditions – the posted limit is 10km/h.

Note that the bikeway will be closed from 4pm on Saturday 6 September for Riverfire. At all other times the bikeway remains open.
