The Elizabeth Picture Theatre, Brisbane, Visitor Guide & Things to Do Nearby

The Elizabeth Picture Theatre is a stop at 175 Elizabeth St in the heart of Brisbane's city centre, in the compact grid of streets that makes the CBD easy to explore on foot. It is best seen as part of a wander through the surrounding blocks rather than as a stand-alone visit.

Tips for your visit

• Allow about 10 to 15 minutes to look at the building from the street, and longer if you combine it with the nearby blocks.
• Daylight is best for photos and for noticing the details of the frontage, though the centre is also pleasant in the early evening.
• If you hope to go inside, check current opening hours and access before you set out, as public access can change.
• Elizabeth Street sits in the central grid, so Queen Street Mall and the river are a short walk away.
