The feedback from last year's Sydney conference was incredible, with one participant calling it "the perfect mix of inspiration and practical gold".

Melbourne is set to be even better, with red-hot practical sessions to help grow your celebrant business and connect with some of the best in the industry.

Final release tickets are now on sale until 12pm, 11th May 2026 (AEST) or until sold out! There's only 8 tickets still available so be quick.

See you in Melbourne!

DON'T RISK THE FOMO

The full program for The 2026 Celebrant Conference in Melbourne is now available.

The Welcome Drinks Party will be at The George on Collins – The Cellar, Sunday 24th May from 5pm. Grab a drink, have a laugh, and settle in. No name tags. No structure. Just community. If you’re coming solo, this event is especially for you… you won’t be alone for long!

Don't miss the Monday Night Party (Theme: Flapper Flamingos) which will be at Morris House, Monday 25th May from 7pm. It'll be an excellent mix of chill, network, and boogie!

Then once all the learning is over, kick back and relax at the Casual Closing Drinks at PJ O'Briens Irish Pub, Tuesday 26th May, from 4.30pm. A great chance to celebrate with all your brand new (and old) celefriends before we head home for another year.

For the main event, here's just a taste of what you can expect over two massive days of learning and inspiration…
