Sporting, cultural and other activities provide important arenas for boys to explore and extend their talents and self knowledge, while also learning the skills of teamwork and leadership.

While it is not compulsory for boys to participate in any of the extracurricular activities, to do so is very much in keeping with the School's educational philosophy. Such involvement is a most important part of being a Grammar boy. It builds School spirit and instills a sense of belonging.

Brisbane Grammar seeks to promote both high levels of participation and the pursuit of excellence by boys who have talents in particular sports and activities. As in the academic curriculum, breadth and balance is encouraged, with all boys urged to value, support and participate in the multitude of activities.

Brisbane Grammar School is a member of the Great Public Schools (GPS) of Queensland Association. Membership of this Association provides the major competitions in sports and in several other activities. These competitions are mostly conducted on Saturdays. Sporting facilities at the School include four playing fields, six tennis courts, a gymnasium and a swimming pool. A complex of ovals and facilities at Northgate accommodates cricket and football fixtures. The School also has a well-equipped rowing shed on the Brisbane River at West End.

Brisbane Grammar carries a proud tradition in music, theatrical performance, chess, debating and public speaking. In music, the School employs specialist teachers for performance in singing, strings, woodwind, brass and percussion. Boys may receive individual instrumental tuition, or may have weekly lessons in small groups. For the latter, there is no charge. Several long-standing clubs and societies also operate, some of which have a distinct service orientation.
