We’re excited to share our 2026 conference is officially in the works – and the dates are locked in!

Grounded in lived experience, the event will bring together leading voices from across the sector to share ideas, spark conversations, and help shape a better future for people and their whānau living with dementia mate wareware.

📅 When: Tuesday 29 and Wednesday 30 September
📍 Where: Grand Millennium, Auckland and online

Marking World Alzheimers Month, this event will also be a timely lead up to the 2026 General Election and an opportunity for you to join us as we celebrate our 40th birthday – making it a powerful moment for connection, learning, and impact.

There’ll be something for everyone, from researchers and decision-makers to clinicians, community service providers and people with lived experience.

We’ll be starting World Alzheimers Month with a political panel as part of the pre-election activities and will confirm the date for that as soon as we can.

More details and a registration link coming soon. Watch this space!
