Brisbane’s November 2–8 selection spans a broad range of ways to spend time out: catch a live cabaret performance, work with clay or resin, browse market stalls, or explore objects on a Queensland Museum Kurilpa highlights tour. Hands-on choices continue with boomerang throwing lessons and ring-making, while food-focused outings include high tea and the Riverside at the Gardens Market. Elsewhere in the wider week, Qld Music Trails, all-age fishing lessons at Wynnum, Moggill Sunday Farm Day, Manly Creative Markets and live music at Southbank Beer Garden add music, practical activity and market browsing to the mix. Whether you are after an artistic project or a relaxed food stop, the guide offers varied starting points.
