The 2026 Aquatic and Recreation Conference & Trade Show brought together more than 500 industry professionals and 40 trade exhibitors from across Western Australia and beyond for two inspiring days of connection, collaboration, and fresh ideas.
Held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre on 26–27 August, the event featured six focused streams: Operations & Technical, Facility Planning, Recreation & Facility Management, Sport & Recreation, Health and Fitness, and Swim School, alongside a busy trade show floor and the highlight of the event, the ARI Awards.
A huge thank you to all attendees, speakers, sponsors, and exhibitors who contributed to making this year’s event such a success. The energy, conversations, and shared commitment to the industry were incredible.
