Southwave returns to South Bank this summer, turning Rainforest Green into a free open-air dancefloor across eight dates in January and February 2027.

Surrounded by tropical gardens in the middle of the city, the series pairs international DJs and well-known Australian acts with Brisbane’s own dance music community. Expect house, disco, UK garage and techno-leaning sets, plus a handful of live performances, from late afternoon into the evening.

Entry is free and all ages are welcome, so it’s an easy summer outing for groups, families and anyone who’d rather dance outdoors than in a club. The series is curated by The Tivoli Group, with select dates co-presented by Finely Tuned, QUIVR and Family Tree.

Registering for each date is optional and doesn’t guarantee entry, but it gets you set times and weather updates. If the site reaches capacity, entry moves to one out, one in.

Venue: Rainforest Green, South Bank Parklands, Brisbane
