The Division of Brisbane is an Australian electoral division in the state of Queensland.

The electorate has had a large number of openly gay candidates over the years. In 2016, both major parties (the LNP and the Labor Party) fielded an openly gay candidate for the first time in Australian history. In 2022, the Greens candidate Stephen Bates, an openly gay man, defeated incumbent LNP member Trevor Evans, who is also gay.
