Aquatic and Recreation Institute opens registration for 58th Annual Conference and Trade Show

Set to take place from the 19th to 21st May 2024 at West HQ, the Aquatic and Recreation Institute (ARI) NSW opens registration for its 58th Annual Conference and Trade Show.

Located in the heart of Western Sydney, West HQ is renowned as the top destination for entertainment, fitness, lifestyle and accommodation in Greater Sydney, making it the ideal venue for the ARI Annual Conference.

The Conference and Trade Show will kick off with a face-to-face Professional Development Day at the Sydney Gymnastic and Aquatic Centre (SGAC) - the highly acclaimed swim school and one of the largest purpose-built gymnastics facilities in the southern hemisphere.

In addition, a range of professional development opportunities will be provided for a wide array of aquatics and recreation workers, including swim teachers, pool lifeguards, aquatic technical operators, and aqua aerobics instructors. Industry professionals will deliver these sessions, ensuring the highest standards of industry best practice.

The Conference will officially commence on 20th May at the Sydney Coliseum Theatre, West HQ’s performing arts venue and the only location of its type in Greater Western Sydney. It will be the scene for the ARI Trade Show, showcasing trade partners.

One of the added advantages of this venue is the on-site Novotel - offering premier hotel accommodation - and a convenient option makes it effortless for delegates coming from regional NSW, interstate, and from overseas.

Looking forward to the event, ARI NSW Chairperson, Marco Blanco commented "ARI is thrilled to partner with West HQ in the delivery of our Annual Conference. It is promising to be our biggest ever event and we look forward to an inspiring and enlightening event that connects industry."

The full Conference Program and Professional Development Sessions will be announced in the upcoming weeks.

Early Bird Ticket Pricing is currently available for the Conference.
