Government House

Government House, located in the Brisbane suburb of Paddington, serves as the official residence of the Governor of Queensland and a venue for state hospitality. The property features extensive landscaped grounds and formal dining rooms designed for ceremonial duties and high-level meetings. Guests access the estate for specifically scheduled public open days, investiture ceremonies, and school tours, where the focus remains on Queensland's administrative history and formal protocols. Situated near Suncorp Stadium, this landmark offers a unique setting for regional visitors and local residents exploring the historic outskirts of the city. The venue prioritises traditional service standards and maintains strict adherence to official etiquette during all catered functions.
