About The Tivoli

Housed in a 1927 building that started life as a cake factory, the Tivoli became a live music venue in 1989 and has been a Brisbane favourite ever since, holding around 1,500 standing. Its ornate interior and balcony make it one of the city's most characterful rooms to see a band.

The balcony looking down over the floor and the old theatre detailing give it an atmosphere bigger rooms can't match, and it's a regular stop for mid-size touring acts across rock, indie and electronic.

On the night

It's a short walk from the station and the Valley's bars, so eat and drink nearby first, get in before the main act, and check the last Valley train and NightLink before the encore.
