Aquatics and Recreation Victoria (ARV) and Life Saving Victoria (LSV) have announced an extended partnership collaboration, which will see the two organisations again deliver the Victorian Aquatic and Recreation Industry Conference 2025.

Set to take place from 17th to 19th September, the Conference will aim to build on the success of the 2024 edition, featuring dedicated content from both organisations along with a wide range of industry and external experts under the theme ‘Collaborate, Connect, Celebrate’.

Aiming to deliver a comprehensive and seamless experience for aquatic and recreational industry professionals, the event will provide a vital platform for industry leaders to come together, share knowledge, and recognise achievements.

Looking forward to the event, ARV Chief Executive, Kathy Parton stated "this year’s theme - 'Collaborate, Connect, Celebrate' - captures the essence of what makes our industry so strong.

“We are excited to partner with Life Saving Victoria once again to deliver an event that reflects the evolving needs of aquatic and recreation professionals.

“Through collaboration, we can provide valuable insights, meaningful discussions, and practical solutions for our sector. We look forward to welcoming delegates to what promises to be an outstanding event."
