Mt Gravatt Show
This show is the annual show for Mount Gravatt and students in student accommodation in Brisbane are welcome to join in the fun and festivities! The entry fee to the show is only $10, so it’s not going to break your student budget. There’s three halls at the showgrounds showcasing local arts and crafts, the pavilion, main arena for additional shows and a junior country music talent quest of course!
City Farmers Market
For students in Brisbane’s premium student accommodation, this event is not to be missed! Every Wednesday it’s being held in Reddacliffe place. The colourful weekly Wednesday City Farmer’s Market is extremely popular with city workers and visitors to town. With a crowd dressed in shirts and ties and business wear, it is clear that the city’s office workers and students in student accommodation in Brisbane love being able to buy fresh food. A simple pleasure maybe, but one that had been frustratingly difficult before the mid-week city markets opened in early 2009. The City Farmer’s Markets fill the outdoor space of Reddacliff Place in front of Brisbane Square (opposite the casino) every Wednesday from 9am until 6pm. Students can expect to see bread, freshly made pasta (created in front of you), snake gully bananas, rich quiches, frittatas and pies, organic and gluten free grocery items, cheeses, dips, olives and sweet patty cakes. Of course, there’s fresh produce too. It’s delightful to have access to seasonal, local fruits (on my visit there were peaches, lemons, Queensland grown raspberries and much, much more).
