We’re thrilled to invite you to be part of the 28th Australian Cruise Association Conference and AGM, a landmark event bringing together ACA members, international cruise line executives, service providers, and cruise and tourism operators.

Proudly sponsored by Tourism and Events Queensland, Brisbane Economic Development Agency and Port of Brisbane, the 2026 ACA Conference comes at a pivotal time for the industry. With continued growth in cruise tourism, new ships entering the market, rising international fly-cruise visitation, and a heightened focus on destination management, ESG, and innovation, it has never been more important for the industry to come together and shape a sustainable future.

This annual event is a cornerstone for industry collaboration, providing the opportunity to reflect, plan, and innovate for success across our Australian and South Pacific ports and destinations. With strong national and international media interest, the 2026 Conference will shine a spotlight on Brisbane as a leading cruise hub and our region as a world-class cruise destination. Don’t miss your chance to be part of this landmark gathering.

We look forward to welcoming you to Brisbane in September 2026!
