The Disability Events Community is excited to be heading back to Ballarat again in 2026 for Ballarat Community Disability Expo!

This free community event is designed to connect people living with disabilities, their families, guardians, support workers and disability providers.

The expo will feature local disability providers ready to answer your questions, share insights, and provide services to support you with everyday life. This event also offers a fantastic opportunity for providers to network with fellow professionals in the local community. We thank our state sponsor NDSP for their continued support, helping to connect communities across Victoria.

There will be a wide range of services and products on display, from allied health and therapy providers, housing solutions, support services and more all aimed at helping you succeed on your journey.

The first 200 people on the day will also receive a free barista made coffee, tea or hot chocolate thanks to VMCH!
