Call for Abstracts
We are delighted to confirm that aged care providers and professionals, researchers, thought leaders, innovators and suppliers will be invited to submit a Call for Abstracts for the Ageing Australia National Conference 2026.
Our goal is to curate a dynamic and forward-looking program that showcases strategic insight, practical innovation and impactful ideas shaping the future of ageing and aged care.
The Program Committee is currently working through the development of the 2026 conference categories, overarching theme and keynote speaker program to ensure the conference delivers a contemporary, engaging and high-calibre experience for all delegates. Further announcements regarding the program and featured speakers will be shared in the coming months.
Categories and the official Call for Abstracts will open in August 2026.
Sponsorship and trade opportunities
The 2026 National Conference is shaping up to be our biggest and most impactful event yet. We are currently finalising sponsorship and trade exhibition opportunities, with a strong focus on ensuring as many organisations and partners as possible have the opportunity to be involved across both the exhibition and broader conference experience.
Each package is being thoughtfully developed to deliver meaningful value, premium visibility and genuine engagement opportunities for our partners across every stage of the conference experience. From brand alignment and thought leadership opportunities through to direct networking, exhibition exposure and audience interaction, we are carefully designing packages that support a range of organisational objectives and levels of participation.
Sponsorship and trade booking process
Sponsorship and trade opportunities for the National Conference 2026 will be released through our online booking system. We encourage organisations interested in participating to register their Expression of Interest below to ensure they receive the prospectus as soon as it becomes available.
Due to the high demand for sponsorship packages and exhibition booths each year, opportunities are expected to sell quickly once bookings open. The prospectus will include full details on available packages, exhibition options, booking processes and timelines to assist you in planning your involvement.
We appreciate everyone’s patience and enthusiasm as this process continues and we look forward to releasing the official prospectus in the coming months.
