Event description

Brisbane@War: Australia, USA, Netherlands, and UK

This year marks the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in the Pacific—an important milestone in global history and in Brisbane’s role as a key Allied headquarters. In commemoration, the Camp Columbia Heritage Association and over 20 local and international organisations, will host a major international symposium and guided tours.

The two-day symposium welcomes participants from Australia, the United States, the Netherlands and the UK. The programme brings together academics, veterans’ groups, heritage experts, and the general public to explore the wartime and post-war legacies of Brisbane as a strategic Allied hub.

Join us also for an exclusive tour of Brisbane’s WWII sites, from the military headquarters of the city centre to the camps in the outer suburbs. Led by local historians, the tour will exhibit the deep history of Australian, American, Dutch and British forces during the height of WWII when the city served as a major marshalling ground for the Allied thrust in the Pacific. The tour will include bus transportation and lunch.
