  • CommsDay Summit 2026

    Fullerton Hotel 1 Martin Place, Sydney, NSW, Australia

    Australia’s pre-eminent telecommunications industry conference, CommsDay Summit, returns to Sydney this June for its 25th edition, taking place at the Fullerton Hotel on June 2–3. The Summit will again bring together the most senior leaders in Australia’s communications sector, including the CEOs of major network operators and retailers, senior executives from leading global technology vendors and the heads of the country’s key regulatory and co-regulatory bodies.

    Around 400 delegates are expected to attend, creating a forum that combines senior representation with an environment small enough to allow genuine conversation and effective networking.

    For the first time, the event will open with a pre-Summit reception on the evening of June 1, giving delegates, speakers and sponsors an additional opportunity to connect ahead of the main conference.

    A special pre-Summit Monday “Restoring Telecom Reputation” forum, developed with the Australian Telecommunications Alliance, will examine how the sector can strengthen public confidence amid heightened regulatory, political and consumer scrutiny.

    The program will also address the key issues shaping the industry, including sustainability, the maturation of 5G and fibre networks, artificial intelligence and the growing energy demands of digital infrastructure.
