We were lucky enough to have Dr Dinesh Palipana as the Ambassador at our Gold Coast Expo. He is one of the best humans we have ever met! So much passion with the biggest heart, our attendees felt the same. We will let the video speak for itself - he sums up our Expos perfectly, why we do what we do and why our community continues to inspire and amaze us at every expo.

2026 dates will launch soon, so don't forget to like and follow us to find out first.....
