"We've all been to a club at some time or other."

Brisbane, 1950-2000

Many of us have fond memories of our nightclub experiences. In fifty years, Brisbane has seen major changes not only to its skyline but also in how people go for a night out.

Clubbed Out is a contemporary history project that records the history of nightclubs in Brisbane from 1950-2000. Everyone is invited to contribute their stories of club life and any souvenirs they may have, because your experiences are vital to preserving Brisbane's nightlife history.

Your stories, your memories, your artefacts - all of it matters. This is a history that belongs to the people who lived it.
