International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney), managed by Legends Global, is proud to join the global industry in celebrating Global Exhibitions Day (GED) 2026, recognising the vital role exhibitions play in driving opportunities for people, the planet and business performance.
This year’s theme, “Exhibitions Drive Opportunities”, highlights the power of exhibitions to foster collaboration, accelerate sustainable innovation and fuel economic growth. As one of the Asia Pacific region’s leading exhibition venues, ICC Sydney continues to champion the value of exhibitions as catalysts for connection, creativity and commercial success.
ICC Sydney Chief Executive Officer Adam Mather‑Brown said: “Exhibitions are a powerful force for opportunity, they bring people together, spark ideas, open markets and strengthen industries. At ICC Sydney, we see firsthand how exhibitions support jobs, drive innovation and create lasting value for our clients, our community and the broader economy. We are proud to stand with our industry partners in celebrating Global Exhibitions Day and the vital role exhibitions play in shaping a more connected, sustainable and prosperous future.”
Diversified Communications Australia Managing Director David Longman said: “Exhibitions such as Integrate, Fine Food Australia, Security Exhibition and Conference, Fire Security, exist because industries need places to gather, test ideas and move forward together. What happens on those floors isn’t just commerce; it is community connecting around a shared purpose. Careers are launched, partnerships are forged and whole sectors find their direction. That’s not a small thing. That’s the point.”
