by Jade Byers-Pointer

This week in Brisbane it’s all about the entertainment and the food. From experience your own version of night at the museum to deciding who has the best burger in Brisbane- there will surely be something on this week to keep you entertained!

Mummies After Dark
Queensland Museum, Corner of Grey and Melbourne Streets

Friday the 15th, it’s time to experience your own night at the museum! As part of the popular Queensland Museum’s Egyptian Mummies: Exploring Ancient Lives you’ll be walking, talking and drinking like an Egyptian.

There’ll be music, drinks and demonstrations. Attendees will have free reign to explore the joint displays that include six real-life mummies dating back to 900BC and 200 objects and artifacts on display alongside them.

Be like Brendan Fraser or Tom Cruise and try to unlock some ancient mysteries while knocking back drinks. You can also walk away with a new skill after experiencing Dr Serena Love’s talk on Brew Like an Egyptian: Ancient Egyptian Beer Making.

The last one sold out quick so make sure to grab your tickets before you miss out!

As with all events at the ‘Welcome to Bowen Hills’ lot entry is free and your four-legged friends are welcome. The cost of the menu will all be regular restaurant pricing. If you are able to round up five mates, you can sit in a booth and pair your burger eating with three hours of bottomless booze.
