2022 ARCIA Industry Gala Dinner

After a break of nearly two years, the ARCIA Industry Gala Dinner is back!

The past two years have been very difficult for many in our industry, and many felt the lockdowns and travel restrictions were especially hard as there was little or no networking with their industry peers. Now that things are finally getting back on track, we want the ARCIA Industry Gala Dinner to be a night when we can all renew friendships and enjoy ourselves, welcome each other back and enjoy the night!

Bookings are now open!

Tickets are also available through Comms Connect as part of their delegate packages. 

This year the event will be held in the Sovereign Room, located upstairs!
