A Game-Changing Transparent Event Venue Is Opening At Roma Street Parkland
A glass act
By Kate Spence | 1st October 2025The future of events? Crystal clear.
Brisbane is about to see its event scene glow brighter than ever. This October, Glo House will officially open in the heart of Roma Street Parkland, introducing the city’s first – and only – fully transparent event pavilion. Think luxe conservatory meets cinematic greenhouse, where every occasion is bathed in sunlight, style, and top-tier atmosphere.
450sqm of great hospitality
The 450sqm glass structure, designed by Glo Events co-founders Pete Cunningham and Anthony Ikin, is unlike anything Brisbane’s seen before. By day, it immerses guests in sweeping parkland surrounds, and by night, it transforms into a soft-lit wonderland that mimics movie set magic.
Cunningham and Ikin set out to design a venue that would not only stop people in their tracks but bring them together in an environment that felt natural as it did glamorous.
A venue that raises the bar
The Glo House isn’t just visually striking – it’s practical.
Capable of hosting up to 400 guests with full climate control, integrated AV and lighting and high-spec finishes throughout, it’s an event planner (and every type A host’s) dream. Weddings, runway shows, gala dinners, milestone birthdays, and brand launches can now all fall seamlessly in a space that looks as cool as it feels. Offering comfort and endless versatility, the Glo House fills a gap in Brisbane’s event scene.
And the early buzz speaks for itself – some of Australia’s leading brands and top-tier event planners are already filling the calendar into 2026.
Why it matters
Glo House is more than a venue – it marks a cultural milestone for Brisbane.
Its arrival signals the city’s readiness to step onto the global stage, awaiting the 2032 Olympic Games. Attention will soon be firmly on Queensland’s capital and having an event space of this calibre only cements Brisbane’s reputation worldwide as a leading destination for arts, culture and luxe experiences.
For locals, The Glo House is more than just an architectural masterpiece; it’s a promise of unforgettable memories. It’s proof that the city’s event scene is not just evolving – it’s glowing.
Open for business this October, you can register your interest in hosting your event at Glo House now.
