After a careful review of the current situation with COVID-19 and extensive consultation with the Australian Government Department of Health and key event stakeholders – including exhibitors and partners – current guidance on travel and large group gatherings means running Victorian Healthcare Week 2020 as planned in July 2020 is inadvisable.

As Victoria's largest annual healthcare exhibition, Victorian Healthcare Week’s top priority is the wellbeing and safety of its customers, partners and employees.

Originally scheduled to run from 22-23 July 2020, the event will now take place on the 21-22 July 2021. The venue, the MCEC, remains unchanged.

Please be advised that existing registrations remain valid and Victorian Healthcare Week will work with key stakeholders including exhibitors, partners and sponsors to mitigate inconvenience.

There has never been a more important time for Victoria's healthcare leaders and broader healthcare community to come together to collaborate, discuss and share ideas about how to prepare our hospitals, services and workforce for unforeseen challenges and Victorian  Healthcare Week is proud to provide a platform to facilitate this.

Victorian Healthcare Week and its partners will continue to work in unison and supporting each other for other healthcare week events in 2020 and future editions. For more information or to discuss your particular circumstances please email info@austhealthweek.com.au or call +61 02 9229 1033.
