The Affordable Art Fair Brisbane, often abbreviated to AAF Brisbane, is a renowned art fair for contemporary art that takes place annually in spring. Originally launched in 1999 in London by Ramsay Fairs Ltd., the fair has since established itself as an established part of the global art scene. The Affordable Art Fair is present not only in Brisbane, but also in other major cities such as Melbourne, New York, Stockholm, London, and Amsterdam, making it a must-visit for art lovers around the globe. The fair aims to make art accessible to a broad audience, which is reflected in a price cap of AUD 10,000, making the works affordable for connoisseurs and newcomers alike. In Brisbane, known for its cultural flair, the event takes place at the Brisbane Showgrounds in Brisbane, where a wide variety of paintings, prints, sculptures, and photography are presented. Both young talents and established artists have the opportunity to exhibit their works here. A special highlight is the "Emerging Artist" section, where visitors can discover and purchase works by up-and-coming artists. Exhibitors primarily focus on fine art and photography, and the fair attracts both international and local art lovers—including gallerists, investors, collectors, and those seeking to explore their passion for art. AAF Brisbane is just one of many art events held worldwide with the goal of making art accessible to all. The Brisbane Showgrounds Exhibition Building is centrally located in Brisbane and is easily accessible by both public transport and car.
The first day of the trade fair is usually reserved for trade visitors and journalists.The Affordable Art Fair takes place annually, and therefore for the third time previsibly in May 2026 in Brisbane.
