Afterglow | Brisbane 2025
Afterglow AustraliaSat 27th Sep 2025 Fri 5th Sep 2025— City Botanic Gardens, Brisbane

Let the fire guide you this September, as the City Botanic Gardens come alive with Afterglow – a breathtaking new after-dark experience that invites you to follow the flame into a world of wonder.
Journey through a glowing dreamscape of fire sculptures, candlelit installation live performances and illumination. Beneath tree canopies and across shimmering waters, the gardens will transform into a living artwork of flame and shadow as night falls and time slows.
Follow the trail through stories whispered in smoke, where every step draws you deeper into a world where light bends through branches, fire pulses in rhythm, and embers flicker.
With ambient soundscapes curated to stir the soul and design-led installations crafted by world-renowned fire artists and local creatives, Afterglow is a slow-burn multisensory journey designed to spark wonder, reflection, and awe.
Whether you’re bringing the family, planning a date night, or seeking a quiet escape, Afterglow is for everyone.
Come for the magic. Stay for the stillness. Leave glowing long after the night ends.
