Hosted by the Brisbane Street Art Festival, Tools of the Trade Brisbane showcased 95% of the original collection featured in Hong Kong, plus numerous new artworks, artifacts, and full-scale pieces from Australian artists.

With a larger space, Tools of the Trade Brisbane was able exhibit a larger collection than previously seen in Hong Kong and incorporate full scale artworks in the exhibition which included a graffiti alphabet from local legend EEKAS, a 10m wide extinguisher piece and large tiled paste up from ASIO 4510.

Many of the artworks acquired for Tools of the Trade Brisbane have been added to the permanent Tools of Trade collection and will be exhibited in future editions.
