QPAC Announces SummerSet

By:

Your family is set this summer at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre's (QPAC's) SummerSet*. With all the adrenaline of Cirque Adrenaline, the carnival of Carnival of the Animals, the excitement of Deadly 60 or the awe and wonder of George's Marvellous Medicine and The Tiger Who Came to Tea, summer at QPAC never looked so good! Now add to that the opportunity to go behind the scenes or enjoy a tasty and refreshing summer menu and your QPAC experience really has summer set.

Go behind the scenes, join the intrigue and experience QPAC from a different perspective with one of the Centre's informative tour guides. QPAC now offers guided tours every Friday (excluding Public holidays) at 10.30am. Discover the history, architecture and performing arts culture hidden within QPAC's iconic walls and visit the renowned Tony Gould Gallery exhibiting fascinating insights into the world of theatre.

QPAC weekly tours** are priced at only $15 per adult and $10 for a Student or Concession including a cup of tea or coffee from the QPAC Cafe. To secure your place please contact 07 3840 7444 or email tours@qpac.com.au. Alternatively you can purchase your ticket on the day from the QPAC Cafe.

Add even more flavour to your QPAC experience by stopping by one of the many eat and drink options across the Centre. QPAC is gearing up for a tasty and refreshing summer with resident foodies creating flavoured experiences to match the QPAC SummerSet* program. Using the humble watermelon as inspiration, QPAC's chefs will serve up a range of new dishes and treats; afternoon barbecues and watermelon stands....just to give you a taste.

Summer really is set with a visit to QPAC.
