City Hall Lights 2023

Brisbane City Hall Lights

Experience the magic of Christmas as Brisbane’s iconic City Hall comes alive with dazzling visuals, festive sounds, and a heartwarming story for the whole family to enjoy.

This year’s enchanting tale, A Christmas Blackout, written by M.H Flynn “Ned and Ted are worried Santa won’t find them in their new apartment, they rally their neighbours to light up their balconies. But when a blackout hits on Christmas Eve, the community bands together with candles, music, and spirit to ensure Santa’s arrival.”

City Hall Lights runs every 15 minutes from 7.30pm to midnight.

The Lott by Golden Casket is the official partner of City Hall Lights.
