Message from The Right Honourable the Lord Mayor of Brisbane Councillor Adrian Schrinner

Welcome to the 2025 Anywhere Festival!

Events like Anywhere Festival help shape Brisbane’s reputation as Australia’s lifestyle capital.

This year Anywhere Festival celebrates 15 years of unearthing the best of Brisbane with more than 250 performances from over 50 productions, and 42 world premieres across theatre, music, comedy, burlesque, circus, dance and more.

Over 600 local creatives will showcase their work in backyards, rooftops, warehouses and churches, creating more to see and do in the suburbs.

I invite everyone get involved in this year’s event and discover something new in Brisbane’s backyard.

Yours sincerely,

Adrian Schrinner
Lord Mayor of Brisbane
