Queensland has lifted Greater Brisbane’s three-day lockdown in time for Easter but a host of new restrictions have thrown holiday plans into chaos. 

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the lockdown would be lifted from midday on Thursday, as thousands of holidaymakers prepare to spend the long weekend in the Sunshine State. 

Face masks will be mandatory in indoor settings like shopping centres, supermarkets, indoor workplaces and public transport throughout the state until April 15. 

Home gatherings until then will be restricted to 30, dancing will be banned in public venues and customers will be forced to stay seated when out.
