Be part of Australasia’s largest fire protection industry event

Welcome to Fire Australia 2026 – Melbourne

After the blazing success of Fire Australia 2025 in Sydney, it’s time to turn up the heat once again.

Join us this May at the Melbourne Exhibition & Convention Centre for #FA26 – the fire protection industry’s hottest event of the year. We’re fanning the flames of innovation, reigniting industry connections, and sparking bold conversations about the future of fire safety in Australia.

Fire Australia 2026 will ignite your curiosity with expert speakers, explosive new ideas, and tailored content streams that deliver real insight – from compliance to cutting-edge tech. Our tradeshow floor will be ablaze with the latest gear, game-changing solutions, and hands-on demos from the sector’s leading innovators.

Whether you’re a seasoned professional or a fresh face, this is your chance to fuel your skills, kindle new partnerships, and light the way forward for our ever-evolving industry.

And when the sun sets, the Fire Australia Awards Gala Dinner will bring the heat – a night of recognition, connection, and maybe even a little fire on the dance floor.

Don’t let this moment burn out. Let’s keep the spark alive.

See you in Melbourne.

Russell Porteous
President, FPA Australia

A note from the Conference Program Committee Chair

The Fire Australia conference and tradeshow is recognised within Australia and internationally. It is a forum that enables the fire protection and fire safety industries to come together to hear from experts and to discuss ideas for resolving challenges. The highlight of the event is the conference program which has traditionally attracted high quality presenters and discussions.

This year is no exception, we will be welcoming experts from across Australia and internationally. We will be addressing topical matters and providing panel sessions that enable in depth discussions on matters that relate to the industry. This year we are providing content across five streams being Fire Safety Assessments, Inspect and Test, Bushfire Safety, Special Hazards and Innovation. Also, for the first time we are thrilled to present a dedicated two-day stream for Fire Safety Engineers. We have partnered with The Institution of Fire Engineers (IFE) to present these sessions which sees an incredible line up of international and local speakers. We couldn’t be more excited to work with IFE to ensure Fire Engineers are well represented at Fire Australia.

As the Chair of the Conference Program Committee, I welcome you to the Fire Australia conference and encourage you to actively participate in the sessions.

Kind Regards,
