Sponsorship and exhibitor information

    The 2026 Early Years Conference presents a unique opportunity to connect with professionals working in the Early Years sector. EYC2026 is expected to attract 400 early childhood educators, health care providers, family support workers, child and family counsellors, community workers, academics and program managers.

    The conference theme will be ‘Inspire. Collaborate. Act’. The conference aims to promote the wellbeing of children and families by advancing collaboration and evidence-based practice, and provides a platform to reflect multiple perspectives to improve early childhood development.
