Brisbane Premier Division 1 is the second tier of the men's senior football (soccer) competition in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, run by Football Brisbane. The teams that finish in the top 2 are promoted to the Brisbane Premier League, while finising in the bottom 2 will lead to relegation into Division 2. There is also a finals series at the end of the season.

After originally operating as a twelve team competition, it was expanded to fourteen teams for season 2010, to accommodate clubs returning to the Brisbane Premier League from the Queensland State League.
