Maryborough Mural Trail - Queensland
Be inspired by Maryborough’s latest tourist attraction by walking the new Mural Trail and checking out the 37 artistic gems adorning buildings in the Central Business District, telling the quirky and serious stories of the city’s colourful past.
The idea of using the CBD buildings is well established with many cities creating mural trails that have become great tourist drawcords.
Maryborough’s Mural Project, launched in 2015, now has 37 murals and installations, with more to come. In the space of five years Maryborough has become one of Australia’s most notable mural cities.
The Trail is a flat walk over eight city blocks covering a distance of about two kilometres. Take a break at the many coffee and speciality shops, parks and places to relax along the way.
Maps of the Mural Trail are available from the Town Hall Visitor Information Centre. Grab a map and then choose your favourites, or walk the full trail where you will find a short story on each piece of art and its significance to the city’s early development.

About the Maryborough Mural Project
Maryborough’s Mural Trail is a community project driven by local business women, Elizabeth Lowrie and Deborah Hannam, to create large scale murals and installations in the CBD of Maryborough as permanent visual attractions for tourists and locals.
The women led a grass roots level organisation which has enlisted the support of a very generous Maryborough. Many artists have painted for free and others have been commissioned by local families, businesses and the Fraser Coast Regional Council.
Volunteers, businesses and members of the community have met all other requirements from the supply of paint, scaffolding, artist lunches, accommodation, and even crane hire.
