Its predecessor broadsheet was known as The Sunday Herald and published in the years 1949 to 1953.[4] In 1953, Fairfax Media bought The Sun, an afternoon paper, and merged its Sunday edition with the Sunday Herald to become the tabloid Sun-Herald.[5][6]

The Brisbane edition of The Sun-Herald has content from the Brisbane Times.

On 23 May 2010, The Sun-Herald published its first section in 3D with included glasses, the first of its kind in Australia. The sections were sponsored by Harvey Norman and intended to promote the then-upcoming State of Origin rugby league series.[7]
