The industry came together for Events Uncovered 2023 on Thursday 10 August to explore the boutique exhibition and gain unique expert insights at the conference program.
Taking place in-person at the Sydney Masonic Centre (SMC), Events Uncovered 2023 welcomed event industry professionals to discover the latest innovations, products and services across a range of industry sectors and get the latest industry insights.
Attendees explored the exhibition before heading into the Grand Lodge to learn from some of the industry’s leading experts on a range of topics including technology, sustainability, health and wellbeing, an industry update and much more.
The date and venue for Events Uncovered 2024 will be announced in the coming weeks.
Events Uncovered would not have been possible without the generosity and collaboration of its partners.
Venue partner SMC provided the impressive venue, with event components taking place across four spaces, including The Banquet Hall for the exhibition, The Grand Lodge for the Spice Knowledge Sessions and the Foyer for the Wrap Party.
Sprintr by AV1 provided the snazzy registration kiosks, which were decked out in the event’s vibrant signature colours and made for an efficient registration process.
D+D Events set up the stylish cocktail lounge furniture and stage, Oneill Photographics captured the happenings of the day and evening.
Solution Entertainment had the Wrap Party in full swing with DJ, band, jugglers and a roving drag queen entertainer who sang and mingled with guests.
Throughout the day, the Spice Knowledge sessions kept delegates engaged and informed, with a series of thought-provoking panel discussions and keynote presentations.
The themes of the day centred around health and wellbeing, creativity, connection, sustainability and inclusivity, giving attendees plenty of food for thought and tips on how to elevate their events in more meaningful ways.
