About Princess Theatre Brisbane

The Princess Theatre is a heritage-listed theatre at 8 Annerley Road, Woolloongabba, built in 1888 and described by its operators as Queensland's oldest standing theatre. After many years as a picture theatre, warehouse and church, it was restored and reopened in 2021 by the owners of The Tivoli. It now presents live music, comedy and performing arts, with capacity for 900 standing or 500 seated.

Bus: Mater Hill busway station is less than 200 m from the venue, and South Bank busway station is within 1 km.

Car: There is no on-site parking and street parking is limited. The nearest car parks are Princess Parking (not affiliated with the venue) and the Mater Hospital, with the Vulture Street and Queensland Cricketers' Club car parks (Secure Parking) also close by.

Where to sit

The Princess has a flat main floor and a tiered Mezzanine upstairs.

When the theatre was restored, the upstairs tiers were re-pitched and given a central aisle to improve the view of the stage. For seated shows the wheelchair spaces are at the front of the main floor; the Mezzanine has no wheelchair access.
