Beginning in 1994, the 4MBS Festival of Classics has become Australia’s largest music festival, celebrating the classics and honouring the anniversaries of great classical composers. The festival takes place in Autumn every year, with concerts and other classical music-themed events performed by Brisbane's finest classical musicians and performers in venues throughout Brisbane. 4MBS Classic FM 103.7 also broadcasts a complementary radio component to the festival.

A festival of "all things Shakespeare", the Brisbane Shakespeare Festival takes place over multiple weekends each Spring. Plays, poetry, feasts, films and concerts roll out in various suburban locations. Festival events have been held in Bulimba, Newstead, Roma Street Parkland, Sandgate and Seven Hills. Each weekend culminates in a free, professional, outdoor performance of a Shakespeare play.
