Special Event Cruise - Riverfire | Boat Tour in Brisbane |

Brisbane's iconic Riverfire festival lights up the night sky with vibrant bursts of color, and viewing this spectacle from the water offers an entirely new perspective.

Operating from the heart of Brisbane, their special event cruise immerses guests in the excitement with front-row seats to the fireworks display and an exhilarating airshow overhead. With only 34 exclusive spots, this 18+ experience balances intimacy with opulence, offering guests a buffet dinner with all-inclusive drinks while floating amidst the illuminated skyline.

The cruise departs from Brisbane’s South Bank, a bustling hub known for its cultural vitality and picturesque vistas. As the vessel sets sail, visitors are treated to panoramic views of the Brisbane River, featuring impressive cityscapes and the starburst of fireworks reflecting off the water. The vessel itself is designed for comfort and style, providing unobstructed sightlines, a friendly crew, and top-tier amenities that make the evening feel both festive and luxurious.
