Business leaders call for changes to stimulate Brisbane’s nighttime economy

A fresh look at compulsory ID scanning and a boost to late-night public transport have been identified as priorities for Brisbane business, as they met with council to find a way to supercharge the nighttime economy in time for the 2032 Games.

“So if you lived 25 minutes from the city you don’t have to use an Uber or taxi. You could still use a bus or a train. That would make it more affordable for people to come in and out of these precincts.” The Queensland government has set the parameters for a review of the precincts to be undertaken this year.The review will be outsourced, and has been asked to focus on the need for people to feel safe in precincts at night, for disruptive people to be deterred from venues, and for venues to be complying with the rules.

“With licensed venues there should be safety controls – absolutely – but trading hours should be something set by the individual businesses themselves.”
