Queen Street Mall
Brisbane's pedestrian shopping street in the city centre, lined with department stores, arcades and street performers. It's a good base for shopping and dining.
Queen Street Mall is the core pedestrian street of the Brisbane CBD. About 500 metres long, it is lined with the Myer Centre, Wintergarden and Queens Plaza, plus many chain stores, restaurants and food courts. Older buildings such as the 1920s Brisbane Arcade are also here. Street performers often entertain in the middle of the mall, and a giant Christmas tree goes up during the festive season. The street is open all day. Shops usually trade from about 9:00 to 5:30 pm, with later hours on Fridays. The Queen Street busway station is underground nearby. Walking south brings you to Queen's Wharf and Victoria Bridge, and crossing the bridge takes you to South Bank.
