Join us on September 9 - 10 at the Newcastle Racecourse to connect with water operations professionals across Australia at the 2026 NSW WIOA Conference & Exhibition.
This is where real-world experience meets fresh ideas, with plenty to see, do, and learn. WIOA events offer industry-leading value and remain one of the most affordable professional conferences available to water operations professionals. Whether you're an industry veteran or just starting your career, this is the perfect event to deepen your expertise, create lasting business connections, and uncover cutting-edge solutions. Stay ahead of the latest trends, discover new suppliers, and gain insights into the most recent industry developments.
One of the best parts of the WIOA Conference is the people you’ll meet.

People who understand the challenges of the job and share the same passion for doing it well.
