Festival of Leadership 2023  

Connect, Celebrate, Be Inspired 

We are pleased to announce that our Festival of Leadership is returning for 2023!  

The festival of leadership is our annual in-person event bringing our members together for a day of celebrating, connecting and inspiring leadership. The festival offers a space for leaders to connect, share experiences and learn from colleagues across the region at a time of transformation and recovery.  

It is a pleasure to be returning to our tradition of hosting an annual event that brings together our members, stakeholders and supporters in a festive environment where we can connect, learn and celebrate the essential part we all play in creating and sustaining our regional leadership community.
