About this event

Now in its third year, Creative Brain Week Australia explores creativity, neuroscience and connection across four immersive days.

Welcome to Creative Brain Week Brisbane, 2026!

What does this ticket include?

This single day ticket includes:

- Entry to one day of programming (talks, discussions, interactive experiences and morning tea)

- Access to leading voices in neuroscience, the arts, health and academia

- Participation in hands-on activities designed to spark reflection, creativity and connection

- Opportunities to engage with a diverse community of thinkers, makers and practitioners

Want a discounted ticket for all four days?

You'll get the most value from the experience by joining us for the full four-day programme, as each day builds on the ideas, insights and discussions from the previous one.

Visit our Eventbrite profile for the discounted four-day ticket and full event information.

That said, each day is designed to stand on its own and deliver valuable learning and connections. If you can't attend the full programme, a single-day ticket is still a great way to be part of the experience.

About This Event

Join us for a four day journey into creativity, connection and what it means to be human. Together, we'll explore identity, emotion, attention, embodiment and imagination, examining how creativity can help us navigate rapid change in culture, knowledge and technology.

As Australia's only event at the intersection of neuroscience and creative practice, Creative Brain Week Australia brings together expert knowledge, research and community perspectives to celebrate the dynamic interplay between brain science, creativity and human flourishing.

Across world-class venues spanning university, gallery and community settings, learn from neuroscientists, artists, academics, practitioners and community leaders while engaging with cutting-edge ideas about creativity, connection and the human experience. We foster genuine connection and create space to think innovatively about how creativity, knowledge and wellbeing emerge among us and for us.

Leave with expanded perspectives on the human experience and practical insights to inform your work across health, art and community settings.

Who’s it for? Whether you’re an academic, clinician, artist, educator, student or community member, Creative Brain Week is a platform for individuals of all backgrounds to connect, think and create.

Why Attend?

- Explore the latest thinking on creativity, neuroscience and wellbeing

- Hear from leading experts and people with lived experience

- Connect with professionals and community across health, arts, research and education

- Gain practical insights to apply in your work, study or community

- Challenge assumptions and discover new ways of thinking

Event Details

Exploring how our surroundings shape the brain.

In collaboration with the Gallery of Modern Art, we shift focus to Attune; exploring the interplay between place and perception, exploring how our physical and social environments influence the way we think, feel and relate to one another. Through the lenses of neuroscience and creativity, we examine how our surroundings are not simply a backdrop to life, but are an active participant in shaping experience.

Together, we explore the role of the senses, neuroarchitecture and environment in supporting attention, wellbeing and belonging. Extending from place to people, we consider how connection unfolds between individuals, illuminating the science of neural synchrony and the ways our brains align through shared experience.

Through a combination of talks, collaborative activities and immersive digital art from Queensland Brain Institute, we explore the role of art and environment in shaping cognitive and emotional responses and connection.
