Getting There
The Home Shows are held in the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre, Merivale Street, South Bank. A modern, fully air-conditioned venue, you can also enjoy several lunch cafes and coffee bars.
We recommend using public transport to avoid traffic and parking hassles. Getting to the BCEC by train, bus or ferry is easy! Here are some tips:
Coming by train?
Catching a train is by far the quickest, most convenient way of getting to the Home Show. There are two train stations within a few minutes’ walk of the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre:
• South Brisbane Railway Station is adjacent to the Convention Centre on Grey Street.
• South Bank Railway Station

Coming by bus?
The Exhibition Centre is regularly serviced by two bus stations:
• The Cultural Centre Station on Melbourne Street is nearest the Exhibition Centre
• South Bank Busway Station, corner of Colchester and Tribune Streets, South Bank
Coming by ferry?
The river is a popular, speedy way to get to the Home Show. CityCats operate daily from 5.30am to 10.30pm. The South Bank Terminal 1 and 2 are a short walk to the Exhibition Centre.
