Brisbane audiences are set for an electrifying theatrical experience this spring as The Choir of Man makes its Queensland premiere at Brisbane Festival for a strictly limited season from 3–13 September 2026.

Fresh from international acclaim, the Olivier Award-nominated production will transform the iconic Magic Mirrors Spiegeltent into a lively neighbourhood local, delivering 75 minutes of roof-raising, foot-stomping live entertainment.

Featuring nine multi-talented performers who combine powerhouse vocals, world-class musicianship and sharp storytelling, The Choir of Man celebrates community, friendship and the unifying power of music in a high-energy production unlike anything else on the festival program.

With a working bar on stage and cold beer flowing, audiences are invited into an immersive pub-style setting where the line between performers and patrons disappears. The result is a feel-good theatrical event packed with heart, humour and unforgettable live music.

The hit-filled setlist spans generations and genres, featuring songs made famous by Queen, Adele, Sia, Paul Simon, Luther Vandross, Guns N’ Roses, Avicii, Katy Perry and more.

Since its debut, The Choir of Man has become a runaway success on the West End and around the world, winning fans for its infectious energy, soaring harmonies and uplifting spirit.

The production will be staged inside the Magic Mirrors Spiegeltent as part of Brisbane Festival’s reimagined South Bank hub, Festival Village, which will run from first light to after dark from 4–26 September 2026.

With a limited run and strong demand expected, audiences are encouraged to secure tickets early for this joyous celebration of music, mateship and good times.

Come ready to drink in the excitement! Tickets start at $74.90. Book now.
