An excuse to visit Brisbane
Need an excuse to take a Gold Coast family holiday in Brisbane?
Well, book your accommodation at Mantra on Queen, because we've got just the event to get you there.
The Light Fantastic: Expo is on now until the end of January 2014, so you have plenty of time to check out this great event.
It is free for everyone, so you have no excuse not to be there, and take the whole family.
As a throwback of the 1988 World Expo, this event will delight and amaze with incredible feats of lighting displays, to be held at the Museum of Brisbane.
"It is free for everyone, so you have no excuse not to be there, and take the whole family. "
For anyone who was there 25 years ago, the organisers are making a special effort to make sure they will be taken back in time to rediscover the magic and joy of the lunchtime and Qantas Light Fantastic Parades that so mesmerised the crowds all those years ago.
If you think about the kind of technology available today compared to that of a quarter of a century ago, you can only imagine what kind of incredible feats they can achieve now.
This could be a great excuse to take your parents on a getaway to see how far the world has come through lighting displays.
As the event is so central, it is just a 15 minute stroll from the Mantra on Queen, which offers a choice of comfortably appointed one and two bedroom apartments.
