The Aquatic Industry Summit has long been an opportunity for aquatic professionals, partners and industry leaders to connect around the issues that matter most across Victoria. In 2026, that conversation returns with renewed energy and a clear focus on supporting safer aquatic environments, stronger industry capability and practical outcomes for our communities.
Whether you work in public pools, swim schools, local government, aquatic operations, training, education, risk, or industry supply, the Summit will offer a valuable chance to reconnect with colleagues, hear from sector voices and explore what’s next for the Victorian aquatic industry.
