About this event

  • 5 hours

It's one of the best Fireworks displays of the year as Brisbane celebrates its annual River Festival with Riverfire 2024. The fireworks are always awesome and where better to enjoy them than from the bow and foredeck of the MV Baroness. This vessel boats the largest open-air foredeck and bow on the River. Even better - we lay out low-set beach chairs and picnic rugs on our white fordeck so guests can relax comfortably for the light show!

Frequently asked questions

Why does it start so early?

Annually, Riverfire is the busiest night of the year on the River . All have to share a limited number of public pontoons so we all work together to stagger the collections. Additionally, we need to be in the Commercial zone by 6pm and we prefer to be early to get the best vantage point!

Where do we park?

Northshore Hamilton Public Wharf is in a light industrial area near Eat Street. There is a large carpark nearby to service the City Cat Ferry and also lots of street parking.

Will there be a band or DJ?

We typically do not book a band or DJ for Riverfire as all the action is outside in the open-air. With the airforce plane fly-overs and the drone displays as well as the fireworks - we stick to playing some popular music over the vessel speakers and switch to TripleM for the Fireworks Soundtrack.

Can we BYO food and drinks?

We don't mind you bringing bags of chips of lollies to enjoy but all drinks must be purchased onboard. We have a full service bar and offer both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. There is a meal provided and an ice-cream for dessert.
