Priority access for social function tickets

Due to the high demand for tickets to our social functions, AusRAIL PLUS 2025 delegates, sponsors and exhibitors will receive priority access to book tickets to AusRAIL PLUS social events. This is to ensure that those supporting and engaging at AusRAIL PLUS can secure social event tickets.

Priority ticket bookings will apply to the following social functions:

• Welcome Drinks (Tuesday 25 November - 1630-1830)

• Women in Rail breakfast (Wednesday 26 November - 0715-0830)

• Yellow Dinner (Wednesday 26 November – 1830-2230)

• Next Stop: Flavours of Melbourne Street Party (Thursday 27 November - 1815-2115) 

Priority ticket sales for registered delegates, sponsors and exhibitors will remain open until close of business Monday 20 October 2025. If tickets remain available for these events at this time, bookings will open to non-registered ARA member organisations on Tuesday 21 October 2025. If tickets remain after that point, sales will open to non-registered non-ARA members on 11 November 2025. We expect all AusRAIL PLUS social events will sell out so encourage prompt bookings. Please note, those booking exhibition visitor passes will not be given priority access to book social event tickets.

We are pleased to announce eight opportunities for pre-conference site tours on Tuesday 25 November 2025. Spaces are limited so early registration is essential.

Please note that tour 7 (Suburban Rail Loop Authority) is an expression of interest only – we will confirm if the tour is proceeding 4 weeks prior.
