15-17 November 2023 | Sofitel Noosa Pacific Resort
The Noosa Tax Convention has long been considered the ‘must-attend’ tax technical event for many in the profession, with its expert led program bringing together the best minds in the country.
Affectionately known as simply ‘Noosa’ amongst tax circles, the program combines expert tax knowledge, technical discussion and interactive workshops led by highly experienced presenters and workshop facilitators.
Along with a key focus on practical examples, tips and strategies as part of the technical program, the format allows for ample attendee interaction at several networking functions including a relaxed offsite dinner at one of the Sunshine Coast’s first-class restaurants.
