Clock Tower Tour
Discover the hidden secrets of your heritage-listed City Hall building with a guided tour of Brisbane’s iconic Clock Tower. The Clock Tower Tour is a “must do” while in Brisbane! For many years, City Hall’s Clock Tower elevated the building to Brisbane’s tallest, offering visitors a magnificent 360 degree view of the city around them. Whilst the view has changed significantly over the last 90 years, the time-honoured tradition of “taking a trip up the tower” happily continues at Museum of Brisbane. The Clock Tower Tour includes a ride in one of Brisbane’s oldest working cage lifts, a look behind Australia’s largest analogue clock faces and time to explore the observation platform that shares a unique perspective of your city. See if you can catch a glimpse of the bells! Make a booking online today to secure your spot! Spaces are limited and fill up quickly. Date & Time 10:15am - 4:45pm Daily, every 15 minutes Please arrive 15 minutes before your tour.

Junior Explorers: Introduction to Agents of Discovery
Brisbane City Council’s Environment Centres are partnering with a mobile app called Agents of Discovery. Agents of Discovery is a great way to get kids active, engaged and exploring the world around them! Environment Centre staff or volunteers will provide a short introduction to using the app, leading kids on the start of their mission to explore local bushland, wetlands, and other natural areas for challenges. After this introductory session, kids and their carers can continue on their own to complete the mission. Show staff your completed mission to collect a prize. Requirements: Agents are required to download the app to a mobile or iPad device prior to the activity (it’s free). Download the free Agents of Discovery app from Google Play or the Apple store. Arrive 10 minutes early to check in. Children must be directly supervised by an adult. Wear a hat, sun-safe clothing, fully enclosed shoes, sunscreen, and bring insect repellent. Bring water and a snack if required, as there are no food outlets on site. Note: Outdoor events are subject to weather and environmental conditions and may be cancelled on the day.
Kayaking

This is a Gold'n'Kids event suitable for seniors and young people 10 years and over.
