Social Functions


We understand the importance of networking with industry peers at the ALDE 2024 Conference. In addition to catering breaks between sessions, we have arranged two social functions as part of the Conference program. 

Attendance at social functions are included in some Full Conference Registration Packages. Additional tickets can be purchased at the time of registering.


Welcome Reception

Monday,  19 August 2024 

4pm to 6pm 

Sea Grass Lawns, Mantra Lorne

Join us for drinks, nibbles and networking with colleagues and exhibitors. The Welcome Reception will be held the evening before the Conference commences. This is valuable opportunity for delegates to connect, learn, and engage before we get underway with the 2024 Conference program. 


Conference Dinner

Tuesday, 20 August 2024

The Ballroom, Mantra Lorne

The Conference Dinner is a must-attend event for delegates. Beyond providing a delightful culinary experience, the dinner offers a unique opportunity for attendees to unwind, forge deeper connections, and engage in informal discussions with peers, speakers, and industry leaders.
