Now in its 24th year, 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 ever 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 the chic surroundings of Oxford Street, Bulimba, the charming seaside suburb of Sandgate, and often in another location (past festivals have included events in Newstead and South Brisbane). Each weekend culminates in a free professional performance of a Shakespeare play in a Brisbane park.
