Venue, Stay & Surrounds

Step away from the everyday and into one of Australia’s most iconic destinations, where world-class insights meet a setting designed for connection, perspective and inspiration.

Located in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef, Hamilton Island is one of Australia’s most spectacular destinations. Surrounded by pristine white beaches and vibrant coral reefs, it offers a rare balance of natural beauty, relaxation and exploration.

It is the perfect setting to step away from the everyday, immerse yourself in the Congress experience, and connect with peers in an environment designed to inspire.

Delegates are responsible for arranging their own accommodation, with a range of options available across the island to suit different preferences and group sizes.

Accommodation Booking

A selection of rooms has been reserved at the Reef View Hotel, conveniently located close to the Congress venue. Known for its spacious, contemporary rooms and sweeping views across the Coral Sea or tropical gardens, it offers a comfortable and well-positioned base for your stay. For those travelling as a group, extending their visit, or seeking additional privacy, a wide range of holiday homes and apartments are also available across the island.

Getting There & Away

Hamilton Island (HTI) is easily accessible via direct flights from most capital cities, with Virgin, Qantas and Jetstar all servicing the island. Congress runs from 9 to 13 November. You are welcome to arrive at any time on Monday, with the program commencing later in the day, and depart at your convenience on Friday.

Dining & Island Experience

Beyond the Congress program, Hamilton Island offers a diverse range of dining and experiences to enjoy throughout your stay.

From relaxed beachfront bars to premium dining overlooking the marina, the island provides a variety of options to suit every occasion. Whether it’s a casual meal with peers, a long lunch by the water, or an evening out after a full day of sessions, there is no shortage of ways to unwind and connect. Combined with a wide range of activities, natural beauty and a uniquely relaxed atmosphere, Hamilton Island creates an environment where business, connection and experience come together seamlessly.
