Conference Programme

The conference programme is coming together, and you can view the draft programme below. 

Thursday will see the return of the ever-popular Clubs New Zealand Expo featuring partners and suppliers to the club industry.  The Expo will be starting at 12.00pm and running through to 6.00pm. The expo will also run from midday on Friday, however we encourage ALL attendees to get behind the expo and to ensure that your arrival in Wanganui gives you ample time to speak to exhibitors and see what is on offer.

Friday's programme is conference day and we have produced a programme which will get delegates thinking, laughing and gathering ideas to take home to your clubs. The Expo will run from 12.15pm – 5.00pm and will be a great opportunity to continue discussions or get to exhibitors you did not reach on Thursday.  After the presentations are over we will once again be celebrating our amazing industry with the Clubs New Zealand Formal Dinner. 

Saturday morning is dedicated to Clubs New Zealand business as we look back on the year that was 2017 and where we are heading in 2018 and beyond.  We look forward to seeing you all there!
