I think it’s great that the council arranges free Christmas activities every year. All you have to do is enjoy except turn (which for me is great public transport from the southern suburbs). Yes, it’s going to be busy. Yes, there will be a lot of people. Yes, you’ll have to queue. Don’t complain, relax, go with it, spend the ‘crazy’ holiday with everyone else. I think it’s great to see everyone like the city. Brisbane Council is doing well, please keep on going, I will always try once or twice. This year, we again took the magic garden in the roman street park. Much better. Not so much queue. Food trucks are great too. Water/light displays could be good next year.
