"Housed in giant cylindrical concrete tanks that were used to store fuel during World War II, this camouflaged rainforest venue has been transformed into versatile art spaces showcasing local exhibitions, live music from around Australia and the world, and community events such as an African Festival and a Children’s Festival. The centre sits adjacent to the Cairns Botanic Gardens and the Mount Whitfield walking trails, creating a cultural hub framed by natural surroundings." - Kirsty Nancarrow

A nice place to go for a walk. The idea of how to use the tanks nowadays is pretty amazing. It gives a nice atmosphere! Also the surrounding area is quite cool. I recommend combining it with a walk through the botanic gardens which are just fantastic.

What a great space adjacent to the gardens and nature preserve to get your ART on! The repurposed "tanks" are especially cool and the space has a very chill vibe to it.

I’ve attended a few live music events in Tank 5, and they were absolutely amazing—couldn’t recommend it enough. The atmosphere is always vibrant and welcoming, and even when I attend solo, I never feel out of place. I’ve also visited a couple of art gallery events in Tank 4, which I really enjoyed, especially when they showcase local artists and artwork inspired by the natural beauty of the region.
