July on King St: Culture, Croissants and a Little Self-Care
Winter has settled into Brisbane, bringing with it the perfect excuse to slow down, catch up and explore everything happening on King St this July.
From celebrating NAIDOC Week and Bastille Day to indulging in a little self-care before the Ekka crowds arrive, here's what's worth adding to your calendar this month.
CELEBRATE NAIDOC WEEK
NAIDOC Week (6–13 July) is an opportunity to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Visit Magpie Goose and discover vibrant fashion and accessories featuring artwork by Aboriginal artists from across Australia. Every piece tells a story, making it the perfect time to support First Nations artists and businesses while adding something colourful to your wardrobe.
VIVE LA FRANCE THIS BASTILLE DAY
Bastille Day arrives on 14 July, and King St is the place to embrace a little joie de vivre.
Celebrate France's national day at Montrachet, where Michelin-trained chef Clément Chauvin has curated a special five-day Bastille Day dining experience from 14–18 July. Enjoy an exclusive $195 set menu celebrating the best of French cuisine, with Bastille Day itself offered exclusively as a set menu experience.
For something a little more casual, stop by Queen Amann for buttery croissants, artisan pastries and expertly brewed coffee, bringing a taste of Paris to your morning, lunch break or afternoon treat.
PRESS PAUSE FOR INTERNATIONAL SELF-CARE DAY
International Self-Care Day lands on 24 July, providing the perfect excuse to prioritise a little time for yourself.
Refresh your look with a cut, colour or styling appointment at Tigerlamb, indulge in a results-driven skin treatment at Seoul Glow, or settle into the chair at Common Barber for a fresh cut and some well-deserved downtime.
Complete your self-care ritual with a solo coffee, long lunch or afternoon wine at one of King St's many cafés and restaurants. Because sometimes the most productive thing you can do is slow down for a moment.
