Agenda & Program
About the Event
The Victorian Association of Performing Arts Centres (VAPAC) Marketing & Ticketing Network invites you to the 2026 Marketing & Ticketing Conference, hosted at Frankston Arts Centre.
This year’s theme is centered around People, Practice & Purpose, exploring what it means to do our work well; for the audiences we serve, the teams we lead and the sector we’re part of.
We’ve brought together industry experts, practitioners and peers from across the performing arts and beyond to dig into the big questions: how we reach and welcome audiences, how we stay relevant in a shifting landscape and how we build sustainable, values-led careers in ticketing and marketing.
From accessible ticketing and audience development to campaign strategy, marketing automation and the evolving ticketing landscape, this is where insight meets practice.
