Southport Town Hall, Art Deco municipal building in Nerang Street, Southport, Australia.

The Southport Town Hall features rendered brick walls, concrete elements, vertical moulded fins, decorative panels, and timber-framed sash windows across two floors.

Constructed in 1935 by architects Hall and Phillips, this building replaced an earlier timber structure from 1899 when Southport emerged as a seaside destination.

The grand council chamber contains an elaborate moulded plaster ceiling, reflecting the architectural sophistication of municipal buildings in 1930s Queensland.

The ground floor originally contained four offices, including a baby clinic, while the upper floor housed the Mayor's office and council chambers.

The Queensland Premier William Forgan-Smith attended the opening ceremony on August 2, 1935, marking government support for regional development.
