We are excited to unveil the new logo for the Brisbane Tramway Museum!

Our refreshed design honours the rich history and heritage of the museum while giving our brand a modern and vibrant new look for the future.

You’ll start seeing the new logo across our signage, publications, and social media in the coming weeks. We will also be launching a new range of merchandise incorporating the new design, including polo shirts, caps and stubby coolers - stay tuned!

Thank you to everyone who has supported the Brisbane Tramway Museum over the years — we look forward to welcoming you back soon. 🚋✨

Thank you to everyone who attended the Great Gatsby Picnic at the Brisbane Tramway Museum on Sunday 12 April. It was a fantastic day, with beautiful sunshine creating the perfect setting for a relaxed and enjoyable afternoon.

The atmosphere was brought to life with wonderful entertainment from the Ipswich City Big Band and Electro Swiggety, keeping the 1920s spirit alive throughout the event.

We hope you enjoyed the historic tram rides (and vintage bus rides courtesy of our friends at the Brisbane Transport Museum), as well as the incredible display of classic cars on show Vintage Car Club of Queensland. It was wonderful to see so many people embracing the Gatsby theme, dressing up and truly getting into the spirit of the day.

One of the highlights of the afternoon was our Best Dressed Lady and Best Dressed Gentleman competition, expertly judged by Brisbane Broncos, Queensland Maroons and Australian Kangaroos legend, Trevor Gillmeister. The style and effort on display were outstanding, and made for a very tough decision!

A special thank you to all of our performers, volunteers, and organisers who helped make the event such a success.

We look forward to welcoming you all back for more memorable events in the future!
