performance (in person)

Sunsuper Riverfire

Sunsuper Riverfire returns this September to ignite our skyline and wrap up three incredible weeks of Brisbane Festival for yet another year. 

Tribal Experiences Managing Director and Yuggera and Turrbal man Shannon Ruska will open this spectacular event with a powerful smoking ceremony. 

This is one of the most electrifying displays in Australia, fired by Foti Fireworks from multiple bridges, barges and city rooftops. Ahead of the pyrotechnics the Australian Army and Royal Australian Air Force will demonstrate their flying prowess, with Army helicopter displays and the gravity-defying aerobatics of the Roulettes.* 

For this explosive Festival finale, crowds can tune into Triple M’s live broadcast or Channel 9’s exclusive television coverage. 

The Brisbane Festival website will be updated with more information on vantage points, accessibility, transport, Army and Air Force flying displays closer to the event. 

*Flying activities include Army helicopter displays and the Air Force Roulettes in the late afternoon and evening, subject to operational requirements.
