The Collision Repair Expo is set to take place 7th-9th April 2022. This industry leading event is run in conjunction with the Auto Aftermarket Expo and will bring over 250 of our biggest brands under one roof. As the only National expo of its kind, we are determined to make this event safe and successful for you.

The near sell out Expo is attracting record visitor registrations to date. Industry feedback is that everyone is looking forward to connecting with colleagues and business partners, and learning about the latest technology and hot topics, at what is shaping up to be another huge Expo.

Based on current projections and expert advice about the COVID pandemic, we believe the COVID situation will have normalised well prior to our event in most if not all states (WA and NZ being the possible exceptions). We are monitoring this closely to ensure we can promptly provide you with clear and up-to-date information.

The safety of all exhibitors and visitors to the event continues to be of utmost importance.  We are working closely with the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, to ensure we are well equipped to run a COVID safe event. Further, we are determined to maintain the highly regarded reputation of this major industry expo by ensuring that we deliver an event where exhibitors and visitors can maximise outcomes for their business.

We are confident of running the event as scheduled in April, however, should COVID throw another curve ball that puts the safety and success of the Expos at risk, we have a contingency plan in place to postpone the event to later in 2022.

Our team are monitoring the situation carefully, to ensure that we continue to provide the best possible experience and value to exhibitors and visitors. Please direct any immediate enquiries to Michelle Vizzutti michelle@aaaa.com.au.

We look forward to keeping in close communication with you.
