Delve into the captivating history of the 'Albert Park and Recreation Ground' in this free guided tour at Roma Street Parkland.
About this Event

Gazetted in 1877, Albert Park which now forms the upper area of Roma Street Parkland, has been part of a changing landscape on the edge of Brisbane's city centre for over 145 years.

Led by one of our knowledgeable volunteers, this free guided tour will take you on a journey through time; when the park was used as a tranquil place for leisurely strolls, to play lawn tennis or as an important recreation space for the American Soldiers to relax during World War II. You will also hear the stories of those who were influential in the parks' creation and subsequent redesigns, and learn more about some horticultural and built heritage features which remain.
