Eagle Street Pier’s last hurrah

Brisbane will have the chance to farewell the long-loved Eagle Street Pier in style before it closes its doors to prepare for the much-anticipated transformation of an iconic Brisbane location. 

Raise a glass and celebrate memories at the Eagle Street Pier Mumm Champagne Pop-Up Bar every Thursday to Saturday from 9 June until 25 June. Plus, every Friday enjoy fireworks and roving entertainment across the precinct. 

Kelly Ferguson, Eagle Street Pier Centre Manager said, “I hope the people of Brisbane take this opportunity to book a table at their favourite restaurant to celebrate this much-loved icon.

The Mumm Champagne Toasting Bar is a fantastic opportunity to raise a glass to “the Pier” and re-live so many wonderful memories.

This cherished piece of history has served Brisbane well and now we look forward to the site’s transformation into a world-class premium dining and entertainment precinct to be known as Waterfront Brisbane,” said Kelly Ferguson.

Eagle Street Pier has a colourful history spanning 150 years. In the 1880s it served as Brisbane’s main wharf for a developing city and played a very important role in Brisbane’s maritime history, continuing to service Brisbane right up until 1960. The area underwent a renaissance when Eagle Street Pier was built in 1989 to become the much-loved destination that we know today. 

Now, all of Brisbane are invited to Eagle Street Pier to reserve a booking at their favourite cafe, bar and restaurant, and enjoy roving entertainment alongside spectacular fireworks and a glass of champagne, to say farewell to “the Pier” from 9 June:
