Australian Sports Turf Management Conference & Trade Exhibition

Australian Sports Turf Management Conference & Trade Exhibition

Held annually by the Australian Sports Turf Managers Association (ASTMA), the Australian Sports Turf Management Conference & Trade Exhibition is the largest event of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere. It spans more than three full days of education and showcases the latest in turf management machinery, equipment, research, technology and products.

Each year hundreds of sports turf management professionals — superintendents, grounds managers, greenkeeping staff, curators and turf maintenance personnel — attend agronomic, leadership and management, environmental, biodiversity and sustainability education seminars delivered by leading Australian and international presenters, and visit the trade exhibition to browse, question and hear from representatives across all elements of sports turf management.

The most recent edition was held from Monday 22 to Thursday 25 June 2026 at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC), South Wharf, Melbourne, with a 6,000 sqm trade exhibition attracting over 1,000 delegates from clubs and facilities throughout Australia. ASTMA partners with Golf Management Australia (GMA) on the event.

The dates of the next edition have not yet been announced on the official website.
