The VMA is delighted to officially launch our 2024 Asia-Pacific Venue Industry Congress.
Hosted at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre over three days, from Sunday, 19 May to Tuesday, 21 May 2024, this year’s event will again deliver keynotes, plenary and breakout sessions, an exhibitor trade floor, social events, and our much-anticipated Venue Industry Awards and Gala Dinner.
As the largest annual gathering of venue industry professionals in the Asia-Pacific, the Congress has been breaking attendance records year after year. The comradery, connections and knowledge sharing at each event are second to none. This year’s Congress will again capture the energy that drives our industry.
Our education program is shaping up to be outstanding with over 20 sessions planned across a variety of industry critical, professional and soft skill development topics featuring 50 plus leading international and domestic speakers and panelists.
We are excited to offer an expanded trade floor with our industry suppliers wanting to get in front of you to showcase their solutions and innovations.
The Congress is your event. Join us to connect, share and learn.
As part of our launch, we would like to offer an early bird price to all new and existing VMA members. Full delegate registrations will provide you access to all three days of education sessions, day catering (MT/L/AT) on the trade floor, the Welcome Reception, After 5! Networking Function and the Venue Industry Awards & Gala Dinner.
In addition, we are presenting a very special offer to our Young Professionals with a special rate of $499. This special package will enable our under 30 industry professionals to experience the Congress and take part in a number of specific sessions to support their career growth.
A variety of delegate packages are available and through our Congress hotel partner, Rydges at Southbank, we are able to provide VMA Congress delegates with a special rate and added benefits. This year you have the choice to book a full Delegate Package with or without 3 nights’ accommodation – the choice is yours.
With Brisbane hosting the NRL Magic Round as a lead in for Congress we encourage all delegates to register now and secure their accommodation as the city will be alive and accommodation at a premium.
