Brisbane is a dynamic city with many interesting activities for locals and tourists alike. In the evening, Brisbane comes alive with many attractions to enjoy and many of them are completely free!
1. Walks in Brisbane City
There are many interesting walk itineraries to do in the evening. Brisbane is very suggestive when the sun goes down and all the lights of the city light up.
The Wheel of Brisbane is gorgeous in the evening when the giant circle is completely illuminated against the dark sky. The Wheel of Brisbane is an excellent starting point to walk in direction of the Kurilpa Bridge, West End, towards Victoria Bridge, Story Bridge and Goodwill Bridge. Any point of the Brisbane City could be a starting point.

Near the swimming pool, there is a colourful structure. It looks like a sort of a cage but when you enter, there are chairs to relax in and music starts to play.
