Livvi’s Place Brisbane

Hawthorne locals are pretty lucky to have this one on their doorstep. It’s fully fenced and genuinely accessible — not just a token ramp bolted on as an afterthought — with soft fall surfaces, a wheelchair-accessible swaying boat, and equipment that works for kids across the ability spectrum. The shade sails do a solid job keeping things bearable through Queensland summers, which honestly makes or breaks a playground visit around here. You’ve got your slides, swings, seesaw, climbing structure, and a sandbox to keep the littles busy, plus picnic tables and a BBQ area so you can actually settle in for a proper afternoon rather than a quick pit stop.
