About these results

Brisbane's live-music scene runs from intimate bars and band rooms to bigger stages. These are the venues to catch a gig — check each one's listings for who's playing and when.

Listings are compiled from each venue's own published information and Google Places data, and ordered by Spot Score — a composite of attributed ratings, review volume, category fit and information freshness, not a firsthand review. Hours-based filters use published opening hours, which are not kitchen or last-order times. Sponsored placements are labelled and never counted in results. Spotted an error? Send a correction.
