FESPA Australia announces 2026 Melbourne BBQ and Sydney Social Dates

FESPA Australia has confirmed dates and venues for two of its most popular annual networking events in 2026, with tickets set to open on 1 December 2025.

The FESPA Annual BBQ returns to Melbourne on Thursday 12 February 2026, once again hosted at the Richmond Rowing Club — a venue known for its relaxed riverside atmosphere and sweeping views of the Melbourne CBD. The event remains a favourite for wide-format printers, sign-makers, industrial print specialists and garment decorators looking to reconnect after the summer break.

Two weeks later, the community will gather in Sydney for the FESPA Sydney Social on Thursday 26 February 2026, held at the Sydney Rowing Club. With its waterfront setting and easy access from the city, the Sydney Social continues to be a key fixture for the NSW print and signage community.

Both events will run from 6:00 pm to 10:30 pm, offering attendees the opportunity to meet industry peers, make new connections and enjoy a relaxed evening with food and refreshments.
FESPA Australia says it looks forward to welcoming the industry to another year of strong community connection across both cities. 

Tickets open 1 December 2025
