Delegate registration fees include online business papers, the President’s Welcome Reception, two-day business sessions including morning and afternoon tea, lunch, and name badge. The cost to attend the conference is heavily subsidised by LGNSW and sponsors.

The conference fee does not cover accommodation or partner attendance. Partners wishing to attend social functions need to book and pay online.

Members wanting to take advantage of the early bird rates, who are uncertain of the names of councillors attending, can register and pay now and confirm names later, provided they do so by 25 September 2024. If payment in full for Early Bird registrations has not been received by 25 September, the standard member registration fee will apply.

Note: Voting delegates for motions must be registered to attend the conference via the Group Registration button above.

For general inquiries, to make amendments to an existing registration, or to register a non-member, please email Conference Secretariat bradley.hayden@lgnsw.org.au.

  • Can I register Multiple delegates if I don't have their names?

    Yes! We understand that you may not have the names of your council representatives yet. Our event portal will allow you to register your organisation without a delegate name, as well as register on behalf of someone else. It’s easy: simply list your delegate names as TBC1, TBC2 and so on.

    You can then return at a later date to update the name information once confirmed.

Business Paper

Member councils will be sent an electronic copy of the business paper in the week beginning Monday 28 October 2024.

Confirmation, Cancellation Policy and Enquiries

Should you be registered but unable to attend, once registered, a substitute delegate is welcome to attend in your place at no additional charge. All cancellations and amendments must be advised in writing to Conference Secretariat Bradley Hayden at Bradley.hayden@lgnsw.org.au.

Cancellations made by 5pm on Friday 1 November 2024 will be eligible for a full refund less a $350 administration fee per registration. Cancellations made after 5pm on this date are not refundable.

LGNSW and the Conference Secretariat do not accept responsibility or liability for any losses incurred by delay, cancellation, or miscommunication. By completing and submitting the online registration form, you are deemed to have read and accepted the cancellation and privacy information.
