Mental Health Australia is delighted to announce our second Mental Health Sector Expo will be held at Parliament House in Canberra on Thursday 5 March 2026.

The Expo aims to provide Mental Health Australia members with opportunities to showcase their organisations to federal parliamentarians, highlight sector achievements, and promote the availability of mental health supports and services in local electorates.

We are delighted to confirm the Minister for Health and Ageing and Minister for Disability and the NDIS, the Hon. Mark Butler MP and the Assistant Minister for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention, the Hon. Emma McBride MP will be joining us at the Expo. An agenda and additional speakers will be announced soon.

There are limited spots for an exclusive opportunity to book a trestle booth to showcase your organisation to MPs and Senators during this sitting period.

There is a $200 fee (per organisation) for members wishing to book a display space, to assist with event costs including room hire and catering. To register, please complete the registration via the orange 'Register' button. Payment can be made via credit/debit card.

Timings and further details will be available soon, but now is your chance to reserve your spot!

Registrations close COB Tuesday 10 February 2026.

Exact event timings will be confirmed. We anticipate an early start (approx. 7am) required for security screening and set-up of display spaces.
