What are the dates for future Carnivals?
The QISSN Carnival is held during the first week of the June/July school holidays each year. It typically begins on the Sunday following the end of Term 2 and runs through to the Friday.
While this timing aligns with most Queensland school calendars, some schools operate on slightly different term structures — including a few with three-week holiday breaks. For consistency, We refer to the Brisbane Catholic Education (BCE) calendar when determining dates each year. Click HERE to check the BCE Term Dates Calendar. Be sure to check our website for the confirmed dates and latest updates.
The 2026 Carnival will be held at Nissan Arena from Sunday 28th June - Friday 3rd July 2026
