BrisStyle Twilight Christmas Markets
Soak up the evening festive atmosphere this December 2026 at the BrisStyle Twilight Christmas Markets, set against the historic backdrop of King George Square. Brisbane families can hunt for one-of-a-kind locally crafted gifts, chat directly with talented designers, and enjoy tasty street food alongside live music suitable for all ages.
BrisStyle Twilight Christmas Markets
BrisStyle Twilight Markets are celebrating 17 years of Brisbane’s beloved marketplace in King George Square, and this one’s a Christmas to remember! There’s a great selection of 100% locally handmade treasures from talented designers and artists, right in the heart of the city. It’s a chance to find truly unique gifts while supporting the local economy.
For over a decade and a half, this event has been a favourite with Brisbane locals who love to shop local and back handmade craftsmanship. Take a relaxed evening stroll around the square and meet the makers behind the goods. Say goodbye to mass-produced gifts and make purchases that really count.
The stalls are packed with the best designs the city has to offer, from all-natural skincare to gorgeous ceramics and stunning wall art. There’s something for every shopper, and something special for everyone on the Christmas list. With Brisbane City Hall as the backdrop, it’s a lovely spot to soak up the festive vibe and find pieces that show off the community’s creativity.
The markets are run by BrisStyle Inc., a non-profit that hosts these events all year round and helps connect local makers with new audiences. Grab a bite from the food trucks and enjoy live music that’s fun for the whole family under the twinkling lights of Brisbane City Hall.
Proudly supported by Brisbane City Council, the markets celebrate creativity, community and 17 years of backing local artisans, this Christmas and beyond!
Shop handmade. Support local. Shop Twilight Christmas.
