The Brisbane Bullets play the Tasmania JackJumpers at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre on Sunday 15 November 2026, with gates at 3pm and the game at 4pm. There is no evening track closure that day, but the Shorncliffe line runs as a weekend shuttle, so a train trip from the city means changing at Northgate, and driving costs $18 a car.
This guide uses the Brisbane Entertainment Centre event page, the venue’s Getting Here, FAQs, Conditions of Entry and Accessibility pages, Translink’s event transport page and its notices on Shorncliffe line weekend shuttle services and evening track closures. The event, shuttle and closure pages were read on Saturday 7 November 2026; the venue’s FAQ and policy pages were read on 26 October. Brisbane is on Queensland time (AEST, UTC+10), which has no daylight saving.
What time do the gates open and the game start?
Translink lists the gates opening at 3pm and the game starting at 4pm, and asks fans to be there before the opening tip-off. The venue’s event page gives the same 4pm start, marked “time subject to change”, and its “Event Times” line says the ticketed start time is 4:00pm. The venue says event information goes by email to the registered Ticketek purchaser about 24 hours before the game.
| Time | What | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 3:00pm | Gates open | Translink |
| 4:00pm | Game starts (opening tip-off); ticketed start time | Translink; venue event page |
The game is RACQ Round, part of the NBL27 season. The venue’s page invites fans of all ages. Neither page gives a finish time.
Can I catch the train to Boondall?
Yes, but not straight through from the city. Boondall station is on the Shorncliffe line and the venue says it is a 600m walk from the station to the Centre. Translink’s event page lists Boondall station (Stop ID 600417) and the bus stop on Aberdeen Parade at Boondall station (Stop ID 003276) as the stops near the venue.
Translink’s notice on weekend shuttle services says that until late 2026, Shorncliffe line weekend services run as a shuttle between Shorncliffe and Northgate stations. If you are travelling from Brisbane City towards Shorncliffe, you catch any train that stops at Northgate and then transfer to the Shorncliffe line, because Shorncliffe trains do not depart from Brisbane City. Coming back, you change at Northgate. Shuttle trains run every 30 minutes, and Translink says to use the journey planner to find your best trip.
| Station | Sunday departures, towards the city (change at Northgate) | Sunday departures, towards Shorncliffe |
|---|---|---|
| Northgate | :26 and :56 past each hour | :07 and :37 past each hour |
| Nudgee | :20 and :50 past each hour | :14 and :44 past each hour |
| Boondall | :17 and :47 past each hour | :17 and :47 past each hour |
| North Boondall | :15 and :45 past each hour | :19 and :49 past each hour |
The notice gives the Sunday times as the same all day, and these are the departure times at each station, not arrival times at the Centre. Translink reviewed the notice on 24 September 2026 and it can change, so check the journey planner for your trip. With a 4pm start, the last departures from Boondall back towards the city after the game will depend on when it ends, which neither page says.
Is the line closed on Sunday evening?
Not by the evening-closure notice. Translink’s list of November evening closures from 7:45pm reads: Monday 2 to Thursday 5, Monday 9 and Tuesday 10, Thursday 12, Monday 16 and Tuesday 17, Monday 23 and Tuesday 24, Thursday 26 and Monday 30 November. Sunday 15 November is not on it, and the closures are on weeknights, so the weekend shuttle is the Sunday arrangement. Translink’s list was last reviewed on Wednesday 4 November 2026 and says closures may change.
| Day | Shorncliffe line, according to Translink |
|---|---|
| Sunday 15 November | Weekend shuttle between Northgate and Shorncliffe; no evening closure listed |
| Monday 16 and Tuesday 17 November | No trains between Northgate and Shorncliffe from 7:45pm; railbus R348 about every 30 minutes |
What will the train cost?
Translink’s event page says normal tickets and fares apply, and that you need a valid contactless payment or go card to travel. It does not list free event travel for this game. Translink’s fares pages say a journey costs 50 cents regardless of distance and payment method, as of October 2026; our go card and contactless guide covers how to pay. For help, Translink’s number is 13 12 30, answered 24 hours a day.
How much is parking, and where do I pay?
The venue says parking is $18.00 per visit, payable to the car park attendant on entry, card only, and that the price can change without notice. The charge applies to all vehicles, including cars, motorbikes and scooters. The venue asks you to arrive early or share a vehicle to reduce delays, and says to follow the attendants’ directions. It describes the grounds as having ample on-site parking.
| Question | What the venue says |
|---|---|
| Price | $18.00 per visit, all vehicles |
| How to pay | To the attendant on entry, card only (the venue is cashless) |
| Which roads | The Gateway Motorway and Bicentennial Road, off Sandgate Road |
| Charter buses and coaches | Parking is free; oversized vehicles pay the $18.00 rate |
| Accessible parking | Close to the accessible turnstile entrances; display a current disability parking permit; the $18.00 still applies |
The venue’s Getting Here page has links titled Driving Directions and Toll Roads and Payment Options, which we did not open, so check tolls on the way before you set off. For live road conditions, see QLDTraffic.
Where do taxis and ride-share pick up?
A taxi rank is on site beside the Ticketek Box Office, and the venue says taxis will be available after the show with a supervisor present. The ride-share pick-up and drop-off point is in Carpark 5, and the venue says to ask staff for directions. There is also a drop-off and pick-up zone inside the grounds for short stays: tell the car park attendant what you need and follow their directions.
What can I bring in?
The venue’s FAQs and conditions of entry set these rules, which apply to most events; the event page does not list a different bag policy for this game.
- Bags larger than an A4 sheet of paper are not permitted for most events. All bags are searched, and a security search and wanding take place before entry.
- One sealed 600mL plastic bottle of water per person is allowed. Other food and drink cannot be brought in.
- Signs and banners larger than an A3 sheet are not allowed.
- Professional cameras, tablets larger than 170mm, drones, selfie sticks and tripods are not allowed.
- Prams cannot go into the seating bowl; they can be stored at the free cloakroom beside the Ticketek Box Office.
- The venue is cashless. Cash can be exchanged for a Cash Card at the venue.
Everyone needs a ticket, including children, except infants aged 3 years and under who sit on the knee of a paying adult. The event page lists junior tickets for ages 4 to 17 and a Family of Four ticket made up of 2 adults and 2 juniors or 1 adult and 3 juniors. Under the venue’s conditions of entry, anyone aged 15 or under must be accompanied by an adult, and people who arrive late may not be admitted until there is a suitable break in the game. The Ticketek Box Office is open on event days and usually opens 30 minutes before the external gates, which Translink lists as 3pm for this game.
Which tickets are real?
The event page says tickets are on sale through Ticketek and warns against buying from unauthorised resale websites, because of the risk of invalid or fraudulent tickets. The venue’s conditions of entry also say a ticket bought at a premium or from an unauthorised seller can mean refused entry, and that buying through a reseller for more than 10% above face value can lead to prosecution. The venue says general ticketing enquiries go to Ticketek.
What help is there for accessibility?
Accessible seating is in the main seating bowl, and the venue says to say you need it when you buy tickets. Bookings go through the venue’s online accessibility form or by email to tix@brisent.com.au, which the venue says is monitored from 9am to 5pm on weekdays, so contact it before the day. Government-issued Companion Card holders get a free carer ticket if it is booked at the time of purchase, and the cardholder collects it from the Box Office on the day. Mobility aid charging stations are on Levels 1 and 2. Sunflower lanyards, used to show a hidden disability, can be collected from Administration on Level 1.
Other facilities listed in the FAQs include a Parents Room on the main concourse (Level 2) opposite Door 8, and first aid rooms opposite Doors 3 and 12 on Level 2. Patrons who need to bring medical supplies are asked to register the date they are attending by emailing bec@brisent.com.au or calling the Centre on (07) 3265 8111.
What else is on around this game?
The same Translink page for the Shorncliffe line lists a late-night closure from 7:45pm the next evening, Monday 16 November. Translink’s event list also shows the Rugby League World Cup finals at Suncorp Stadium on the same Sunday, a different venue; our guide to the finals at Suncorp Stadium covers it. On the Gold Coast line, Translink lists a weekend track closure from Saturday 14 to Sunday 15 November, which matters only if you are travelling up from the coast.
At the Centre, the venue lists Iron Maiden on 18 and 19 November, and our guide covers Iron Maiden at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre, J. Cole on 25 November and Joji on 11 November. The next Bullets home game on the venue’s list is against the Sydney Kings on Sunday 22 November at 4pm.
