Around 60 people from Disrupt Land Forces are protesting against the Land Forces Expo, which showcases equipment and technology used in warfare. 

The protest began around 7am and attendants have covered the steps of the Convention Centre in fake blood.

Police say while they were aware the protest was going ahead, the protestors do not have a permit.

A similar protest took place in South Brisbane last Thursday night, where four people were arrested.
