The CityCat ferry has regular services linking people to the nearby CBD and neighbouring suburbs, and cycling enthusiasts make the most of the riverside walking and bike path linking New Farm to the city’s Eagle Street precinct.

BRISBANE POWERHOUSE

Self-proclaimed ‘hub for contemporary culture’, the Brisbane Powerhouse is a thriving multi-purpose arts facility. Originally a powerhouse built in the 1900s, the building lay derelict for years until its refurbishment in 2000. Now the industrial, edgy space is home to a variety of cultural events and exhibitions, welcoming up to 700,000 people per year.

MERTHYR BOWLS CLUB

Arguably one of the best locations on the Brisbane River, Merthyr Bowls is hidden among the houses that line the banks. The relaxed space is a hot spot for locals craving a game of barefoot bowls, accompanied by a barbecue and brews on a balmy afternoon.

JAN POWERS FARMERS’ MARKETS

New Farm’s Powerhouse is teeming with locals on Saturday mornings for the renowned fresh food Jan Powers Farmers’ Markets. The bustling stalls selling fresh fruit and vegetables, local dairy products and sweet treats draw a regular crowd, with the nearby dog park also getting a work out.
