Every effort will be made to ensure you are seated at the table you have selected. There may however be a need to combine tables and adjust your allocated seat(s) due to the final tickets purchased at your table. Please be understanding in this situation.

DRESS CODE: Smart evening attire (non-formal).

GUEST SPEAKER: Owen Finegan

We are thrilled to welcome Owen Finegan as our keynote speaker. A Wallabies legend and foundation member of the ACT Brumbies, Owen played 93 Super Rugby matches, captained the Brumbies to victory in 2004, and holds the Super 12 record for the most tries by a forward.

With 56 international caps, he was a key figure in Australia's rugby success, including scoring a memorable injury-time try in the 1999 Rugby World Cup final. Named Australia’s Player of the Year in 2001, he was also recognized in the Wallaby Team of the Decade.

Beyond rugby, Owen has built a successful career in leadership roles, including as CEO of The Kids' Cancer Project, driving positive change for children with cancer.

Join us for an inspiring evening with one of Australian rugby’s greats!

LIVE MUSIC: Dow Jones and the All Ordinaries

Back by popular demand! After an unforgettable performance last year, this group of like-minded friends—who have been playing together since the early 1990s—returns to keep us entertained. With a crowd-pleasing mix of ’80s, ’90s, and ’00s hits, they’ll have you on your feet all night.

Get your dancing shoes ready and join the fun!
