The Queen Street Mall is a pedestrian mall located on Queen Street in the centre of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.^[1] The mall extends approximately 500 metres (1,600 ft) from George Street to Edward Street, and has more than 700 retailers over 40,000 square metres (430,000 sq ft) of retail space, which includes six major shopping centres. It was intended to bring more people into the central business district.

The mall was designed by Robin Gibson and opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 1982. It has been refurbished and extended a number of times. In 2013 it was the site of a siege that saw the mall go into a lockdown. It features several shopping malls, a steel structure for shade and an entertainment stage. The mall sits atop the Queen Street Bus Station.
