About Roma Street Parkland
​
This is the first time our festival will be held in Roma Street Parkland! The lush open-air amphitheatre features grass-covered seats, but bring a rug or pillow for extra comfort.

“To be or not to be hungry?” will not be the question, as woodfired pizzas and drinks will be available for purchase, before and during Hamlet. Come early for pre-performance food, live music and swordplay! Free facepainting for kids.

TRAVEL INFORMATION: The parkland is a 10 minute walk from Brisbane’s CBD and is adjacent to Roma Street bus and train station. Metered parking is available at College Close Car Park and along Parkland Boulevard. For dropoffs, Wickham Terrace is the closest road to the amphitheatre.
