Step aboard and immerse yourself in an unforgettable voyage through the heart of Brisbane. Against the stunning backdrop of the ever-expanding city skyline, journey along the iconic waterways, tracing the mighty banks that shape the Brisbane River.

The city ambience is remixed into decadent DJ sets soundtracking the extravaganza and punk that is burlesque, the drama and defiance of drag and the addictive and attention-grabbing power of circus.

The Art Boat, reimagined, is chartered and curated by the world-class local legends BRIEFS FACTORY with a collaborating entourage of artists from across the festival.
