The PLA NSW/ACT 2022 conference will be held in the Northern Rivers town of Lismore; tucked away in the hills of northern NSW.  The area is renowned for its world heritage national parks, alternative living, extraordinary artists and gourmet produce.

Our 2022 theme, Live, work, play: our future will explore how our people behind the places have transformed how they live, work and play in their everyday worlds; environmentally, economically and socially.  How has the need to re-think things changed what you do and/or how you do it?

Our conference will focus on sharing ideas, discussions and experiences and be suitable for everyone from operational staff to managers & elected representatives.

Parks, sport, and leisure industry specialists don’t miss your chance to join us in Lismore, witness the  transformation in progress, and share your success and learnings on a project or initiative that demonstrates resilience and sustainability: how you and/or your organisation have re-assessed, re-constructed, and/or refocused the policy, planning, design, and/or procedures and practices for operations and management of the greenspaces, sports and leisure facilities that we provide for our communities.
