Bequests
Leave a Lasting Legacy Through Dance
A gift in your Will is a powerful way to support Queensland Ballet beyond your lifetime, helping future generations experience the transformative power of dance.
Your bequest will help Queensland Ballet continue creating extraordinary artistic experiences, nurturing talented artists, delivering education and community programs, and reaching audiences across Queensland.

Why Leave a Bequest?
A bequest is a meaningful way to support something you value, while ensuring your loved ones are provided for first.
No matter the size, your gift will help Queensland Ballet:
- Inspire audiences through world-class performances
- Develop the next generation of artists
- Deliver education and community programs
- Extend the reach of ballet across Queensland
- Secure the future of Queensland Ballet for generations to come
How to Make a Bequest
When preparing or updating your Will, you may choose to leave:
- A specific sum of money
- A percentage of your estate
- The residue of your estate after other gifts have been distributed
- Property, shares or other assets
We recommend seeking independent legal advice to ensure your wishes are accurately reflected.
Making a Bequest is Easy
To help simplify the process, our valued partners McCullough Robertson have prepared suggested wording that can be provided to your solicitor when drafting or updating your Will.
Queensland Ballet encourages all supporters to seek independent legal advice when preparing or updating a Will.

Your Legacy - Charles Lisner Circle
Named in honour of our founding Artistic Director, the Charles Lisner Circle acknowledges the special group of people who have made a legacy commitment to Queensland Ballet by including us in their will.
“I had the rare opportunity of founding an institution which will make a lasting contribution to art and give pleasure to countless millions long after I have gone.”
- Charles Lisner
