What is Out of the Box?
Out of the Box is a biennial festival for children 8 years and under, held at the Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC).
Out of the Box takes pride in its history as a national leader in programming for young children, nurturing children’s creativity and imagination.
Out of the Box takes place throughout the entire Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC) and extends across the Queensland Cultural Centre precinct.
Out of the Box is a week of cultural activity crafted to celebrate and support learning, play, curiosity and discovery for children and their families as they learn and grow together. Out of the Box acknowledges and celebrates the value and importance of the arts in education and life-learning.
This year marks the 20th birthday of the festival and we will celebrate with a culturally rich program tailored to the imaginations of under 8’s with a vibrant range of performances, workshops and free events.
Out of the Box is proud to collaborate with its many partners to present a showcase of experiences that are meaningful, lively, creative, and artistically rewarding. To discover and rediscover the magic of books and story, narrative, performance and thoughtful play.
