Brisbane Kids- the official guide to child friendly brisbane

  • AboutBrisbane Kids Creative was created by me! Ngaire Stirling. I wont pretend to talk in the third person about myself, instead let me tell you a bit about me and how 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came about. At the time the domain name 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for purchase I was a stay at home mum in the middle of a degree centred around journalism and PR. a couple of years earlier I had been contemplating returning to my previous career in marketing management and for a while I even tried. 3 months into a new role and it was clear that I had no passion for my old life and to make the decision to quit easier, my almost 2 year old at the time was not coping with childcare. So, as a family we made the decision for me to return to becoming a stay at home mum. About 1 years later or so.. 110.232.142.129/~brisba22 came up for sale. My friends had often commented on my ability to know exactly what was happening in Brisbane for kids. I had my son enrolled in some awesome activities and we often visited some great destinations. I loved finding fun things for us to doโ€ฆ

Best Twilight Markets in Brisbane

Last updated: February 6, 2026

As the sun descends in the South-East Queensland sky, Twilight markets come alive. Cooler weather, a relaxed atmosphere and the benefit of not having to make dinner are just some of the great reasons to hit up one of the best twilight markets in Brisbane.

Most of the markets offer a variety of delicious food and drinks, bric-a-brac, homemade products and live music and entertainment, making their aisles the ideal place for a gentle stroll as the sun fades. Some markets even allow you to bring your friendly dog, though check in advance to avoid your furry friend being disappointed.
