Is Brisbane Ready to Be the Equal of Sydney and Melbourne?
Briefly

Brisbane has always been behind Sydney and Melbourne as Australia's No. 3 city, but Jean Paul Gaultier's choice to host his Fashion Freak Show there marks a significant cultural shift.
Gaultier has never staged a couture runway show or theater production in Australia before, making 'Fashion Freak Show' a unique debut for his work in the country.
Elin Charles-Edwards noted that Brisbane's cultural and demographic growth, with a population increase twice as fast as Sydney or Melbourne, indicates the city's evolving status.
As Brisbane gears up to host the 2032 Summer Olympics, the successful hosting of Gaultier's show symbolizes the city's expanding cultural identity.
