Invitation to Attend

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Board of Directors and Organising Committee, it gives us great pleasure to invite you to attend the 2026 ACIPC International Conference.

Sunday 8 – Wednesday 11 November 2026
Gold Coast, Queensland and Online

The 2026 conference theme, From Knowledge to Action: Delivering Impact in Infection Prevention and Control, will explore how evidence and expertise can be translated into meaningful outcomes across healthcare settings.

By attending the conference, you will learn from national and international experts, network with like-minded professionals, and meet with Australasia’s largest collection of IPC industry suppliers.

We encourage delegates travelling to the Gold Coast to extend their trip either side of the conference, so you can visit the many wonderful sights and attractions the city and Queensland have to offer.

More information regarding the conference, including invited speakers, social events, and engagement initiatives, will be released via the conference website as planning proceeds.

So, save 8–11 November in your calendar now — we look forward to seeing you at the conference.

Sally Havers
President, Australasian College for Infection Prevention and Control
