FAQs

Attending State Conference  

All delegates, observers and media must be pre-registered to attend prior to State Conference weekend.  

All delegates elected at their 2024 AGM have been contacted directly with details on how to register. Please email us at conference@walabor.com.au if you have any questions.  

Can I register to attend as an observer? 

Party Members  

All Party members are welcome to attend State Conference. Members who are not credentialed as delegates are able to register as Observers, and attend to watch proceedings across the weekend. These party members will not be allowed on the conference floor but will be able to view State Conference from the observers area. 

Community Observers  

People who are not party members may apply to attend State Conference as observers.  

These participants will need signed permission of the President, State Secretary or Assistant State Secretary and the name of a sponsor delegate. Observers will not be allowed on the Conference floor but will be able to view State Conference from the observers area during open sessions. 

Media  

Representatives from local and national media outlets are welcome to attend State Conference for open sessions. A designated area on the conference floor will be reserved for journalists and media crews. 

Please register your attendance by completing the Observer Registration. A member of our team will contact you to confirm access and provide further details. 

State Conference: Observer Registration  

Online observer registrations close COB Wednesday 5 November 2025.  

Your assistance in meeting this deadline is greatly appreciated, as it helps ensure the smooth planning and running of the conference. 

Can children attend? 

All Party Members were invited to express their interest in accessing child minding services during State Conference. As there was only very minimal interest, a creche service will not be offered this year. We thank members for their understanding.
