The 2024 ACNpA conference is for in-person attendance only. Although we acknowledge the advantages of hybrid formats, we consider the in person and social aspect of traditional conferences is crucial for our professional community. .
Any special rates for accommodation?
We have not arranged for discounted accommodation at the conference location itself, which will be at Rydge's South Bank Brisbane, Australia (Address: 9 Glenelg Street, South Brisbane, QLD 4101). https://www.rydges.com/accommodation/brisbane-qld/brisbane-south-bank
There are plenty of accommodation options around the location, and we know that our community is extremely adept at sourcing for reasonably priced accommodation that will be equal or cheaper than the discounts the hotel will be able to offer.
