Past events

October 2023 Liquor Accord Forum

The second Liquor Accord Forum for 2023 was held on 10 October 2023, at the ParkRoyal, Darling Harbour, NSW.

More than 125 delegates came together from across NSW to hear from representatives from a number of accords who have rolled out unique initiatives and campaigns to address issues in their local areas. Panel discussions covering regulatory operations and compliance, multi-venue barring and attracting and retaining members were also a highlight.

The forum was a great opportunity for liquor accord executive and members to network with peers and share insights.

Feedback from the event:

  • A great opportunity to hear from other accords on project delivery.
  • Good content with interesting presentations.
  • Content of each presentation was relevant and engaging.
  • Well organised and professional.
  • Good timing, speakers and venue.
  • Was good to get insights into different liquor accords.
  • The event was very smooth and had a great atmosphere.
  • Loved hearing from a variety of liquor accords about what initiatives and projects they have been working on. Was a great format too - mix of presentations and panels.
