We pay our respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander ancestors of this land, their spirits and their legacy. The foundations laid by these ancestors give strength, inspiration and courage to current and future generations, both First Nations and non-First Nations peoples, towards creating a better Queensland.

From the infinite expanse of space to Earth’s remarkable biodiversity, the boundless potential of human creativity to the depths of transformative technology, World Science Festival Brisbane is a tribute to the relentless spirit of scientific inquiry.

Proudly hosted by Queensland Museum, this year’s festival honoured our Thinkers and Dreamers—an ode to exploration and creativity. The festival captivated minds of all ages, offering a deep appreciation for the impact of science across diverse domains, including First Nations knowledge, the wonders of the natural world, and the cosmic wonders above.
