📸 WARNING: Visiting the Mt Gravatt Markets may result in an uncontrollable urge to stop for a selfie… 🤳😂

Introducing the ! 🪶

This stunning mural by the incredibly talented Edwin Paulin has quickly become one of our favourite spots around the Showgrounds precinct. If a kookaburra could smile for the camera, we’re pretty sure it’d look just like this!

So here’s your mission:
📸 Snap your best
😁 Pull your funniest laugh (bonus points if it’s better than a kookaburra’s!)
🏷️ Tag Mt Gravatt Markets and Mt Gravatt Showgrounds - Brisbane’s Best Event Spaces so we can see your masterpiece.

Whether you’re grabbing a coffee, browsing the markets or just out enjoying the day, don’t forget to say “cheese”… or should that be “koo-ka-burra!” 😂

Who’ll post the best ? We can’t wait to find out!

https://snow4kids.com.au

Well… at least at the Mount Gravatt Showgrounds! 😄

Who says you need to travel to the Snowy Mountains when you can build a snowman, throw real snowballs, watch snow fall from the sky and make magical winter memories right here on Brisbane’s southside?

Snow4Kids is BACK and it’s bigger, snowier and more magical than ever! Featuring:
❄️ Real snow
⛄ Snowman building
⚪ Snowball throwing
🌨️ Falling snow every session
📸 Amazing family photo opportunities
🌭 Food trucks
🎉 80 minutes of non-stop winter fun!

Let’s be honest… Brisbane kids have two settings:
☀️ “It’s too hot!”
🥶 “Mum, can we go back to the snow?”

Now they can! 😂

📍 Mount Gravatt Showgrounds
📅 20 June – 12 July
🎟️ Sessions sell quickly, so don’t leave it until the snow melts!

Who’s ready to swap thongs for gloves? ❄️🧤

🚨 OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

The team were so excited for Game One tomorrow… we may have accidentally overprepared the Main Arena yesterday. 👀💥

Bit of maroon paint…
A few banners…
Maybe got slightly carried away. 😅

Safe to say the grounds crew are Queenslanders. ❤️🤍

Do you reckon we went too far… or not far enough? 😂

🌈 Sometimes the Brisbane weather likes to remind us who’s really in charge…

One minute it’s sunshine, the next minute it’s sideways rain… and then suddenly a rainbow lands right over the Mount Gravatt Showgrounds.

We checked… sadly no actual pot of gold was found.
But honestly, after 110+ years of community memories, maybe this place already is one. 😉

From local sporting groups, community halls, cultural festivals and markets, to major events and family experiences — this little patch of green in the middle of Brisbane keeps giving back year after year.

Even the rainbow knows where the good community assets are. 🌈

🥰 💚 days like today are exactly the reason why.

A precinct with more than 110 years of history continuing to evolve into a true multi-purpose community destination for Brisbane’s southside.

Today alone the grounds came alive with:

- A major multicultural community event delivered by Kairali Brisbane Inc
- Brisbane Afrikaanse Kerk hosting a long-standing private gathering in the Upper Community Hall
- UCMAS delivering maths tutoring and educational development classes
- Queensland Quilters Inc. and Decorative Arts groups continuing their regular monthly community activities

All operating side by side within one community precinct.

This is the role community assets should play.
Not sitting dormant… but active, inclusive and constantly contributing to local life every single week of the year.

The Mount Gravatt Showgrounds Trust now supports more than 30+ regular not-for-profit and community organisations onsite, alongside sporting groups, cultural associations, education providers, family events and growing entertainment opportunities.

Looking ahead, the opportunity becomes even greater.

A future-focused precinct capable of supporting wider sporting activation, national experiences, cultural tourism, entertainment and stronger grassroots community outcomes — while still protecting the history and heart of the site.

Respect the past.
Build for the future.

Brick by brick.
