Bale Up is an annual conference bringing together women from across NSW and beyond who are involved in the dairy industry. More than just a conference, Bale Up is a space to connect, learn and be inspired alongside a supportive community of around 120 attendees.

The program features engaging keynote speakers, panel discussions and workshops led by industry professionals, agricultural leaders and fellow dairy farmers, all sharing practical insights and real experiences.

The 2026 Bale Up Conference will be held 22–24 September at the QT in Canberra, ACT.

This year’s theme, “Leading the HER-d”, celebrates the leadership, innovation and influence of women in dairy.

Join us for three days of connection, learning and inspiration with an incredible community of women in dairy.
