The local neighbourhood will gather this Saturday, 20 June, from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. along Station Street. For an entry fee of $4, the familiar morning market grounds will shift into the Neon Nights Twilight Markets. 

Organisers have planned a massive evening featuring crackling bonfires to keep the winter chill away. Glowing decorations and neon displays will colour the streets, providing a bright backdrop for residents to meet and celebrate the cooler months together.

Food, Drinks, and Secret Recipes

A major drawcard for the community is the pop-up bar, which serves local craft brews alongside a highly anticipated traditional Glühwein. The creators of this hot spiced wine have kept their recipe closely guarded, spending the last six years perfecting the warm blend. 

Visitors can pair their winter drinks with a huge selection of gourmet street food and sweet treats from the dozens of stalls lining the avenue.



Local Entertainment Takes the Stage

Live performances will keep the energy high across two separate music stages, with crowd favourites Soul Cutz leading the main stage lineup. Families will find plenty of activities to keep children entertained throughout the evening. Adding to the lively atmosphere, roving circus acts and jugglers will move through the crowds. Art lovers can also watch a live spray-paint artist create bold pieces from scratch, bringing a creative street edge to the local community celebration.

A free, full-day masterclass in AI-powered social media strategy is coming to the suburb on 26 June, as part of a Brisbane City Council initiative to help local businesses improve their digital skills.



Helping Locals Adapt to Changing Technology

The Nundah session will run on Thursday, 26 June, led by Brisbane consultancy Social Mediology. Each workshop is capped at 15 people to keep it hands-on and is open to small business owners of all experience levels, including beginners.

The program teaches businesses to use AI to connect with their audience, covering market research, customer personas, and a 90-day social media plan. Participants will also learn to create content in their brand voice and take home reusable templates and tools.

A Focus on Community-Based Business Support

Brisbane City Council is backing the workshops to support small and home-based businesses in the digital space. Eligible applicants must be in the Brisbane LGA, have a current ABN or ACN, bring a laptop and attend the full day.

The program aims to boost the local economy by equipping business owners with practical tools they can use immediately. It’s open to all, with no AI experience needed, and suits sole traders, retailers, creatives, and service providers.
