Fully owned and operated by World Tourist Attractions Australia, the Wheel of Brisbane stands 60 metres tall (somewhat shorter than London Eye's 135 metres), illuminating the South Bank skyline and river with thousands of LED lights at night and presenting an exciting landmark for visitors and locals.
The wheel has 42 air-conditioned, fully enclosed capsules, each capable of seating up to 6 adults and 2 children. Each ride is of 12 to 15 minutes duration (which roughly equates to 3 or 4 wheel rotations) and offers unique panoramic 360 degree views of the river and city.
The Wheel of Brisbane is open seven days a week, from 10am to 10pm.
Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for children 12 years and under and $2 for children aged between 1 year and 3 years. A private gondola may be booked at a rate of $95 and a discount is available on tickets purchased online.
