Beyond Borders on the Road kicks off in Sydney - Early-Bird Tickets on Sale Now

ATIA is kicking off its 2026 Beyond Borders On The Road (BBOTR) series in Sydney on 13 April and, for a limited time, members can secure their spot for just $55 and non-members just $110.

BBOTR takes ATIA’s signature insights, advocacy updates, and industry connections directly to travel professionals around the country. Sydney is the first stop in a national series (Brisbane – 20 May, Adelaide – 20 July, Perth – 22 July) that builds toward the flagship Beyond Borders Travel Summit later in the year. 

One evening. Real Intel.
The Sydney programme covers the issues that matter most to travel businesses right now:

• ATIA CEO update 
• ATIA Advocacy Update
• Marketing masterclass - Nicole O’Sullivan and Chris Fundell on personal branding, social media, and turning leads into dollars
• Sydney Airport Master Plan briefing - what the T2 terminal upgrade means for your clients plus Q&A
• NTIA: how to win - what makes a standout submission, and recognition of local finalists
• Rooftop drinks and networking to connect with peers, the ATIA team, and corporate partners after hours
