Frequently asked questions
Do I need to print my ticket?
No. A mobile ticket on your phone is all you need — just show it at check-in on arrival.
What is the difference between the Dawn, Day, Twilight and Night climbs?
Each time slot gives you a different light and atmosphere. Dawn offers a quiet, golden-hour city; Day gives the clearest long-distance views; Twilight catches the transition from daylight to city lights; and Night puts Brisbane's illuminated skyline at your feet.
