About Perth
The city of Perth is set on the beautiful Swan River looking up to the Kings Park Botanic Gardens, while the suburbs of Perth stretch in all directions to the Darling Range in the east and the Indian Ocean in the west. Beaches stretch for miles to the north and south and the well-known port city of Fremantle is 18km south-west of the city.
Perth is home to about 2.14 million people, making it the fourth most populous city in Australia. It’s easy to get around the city by bus or train or on foot, and the metropolitan area is linked by efficient freeways, highways, railway lines and cycle paths.
The city embraces the best of both worlds, where soft-sand beaches and scenic parks meet a thriving metropolis of small bars, creative restaurants and curated street art.

- All information will be available via our Event App, in lieu of a printed conference booklet.
- Sponsors and Exhibitors are encouraged to exercise environmental values and practices in their participation.
- Donating leftover food to charities.
- Design signs to be reusable.
- Request recycled, PVC free or other sustainable options when printing merchandise, signs etc.
