Posted February 6, 2023

Brisbane City Hall and Parliament House were lit up in orange, maroon, green and yellow on Saturday, February 4, to mark Sri Lanka’s 75th year of independence.

The spectacular lighting was organised by the Honorary Consul for Sri Lanka in Queensland, Anton Swan.

Last year too, City Hall was bathed in the glow of Sri Lanka’s national colours.
