A Conference Fifty
Years in the Making.
Professionals was founded in this city in 1976. Twelve agents with one idea: that there had to be a better way to do real estate. Fifty years later, we're coming home to celebrate what they started and what every one of you has built since.
And what a moment to do it. The group is growing, the energy is real, and there is so much still to come. Three days in Brisbane to mark our history and get genuinely excited about where we're going.
This is the one you'll talk about for the next 50 years.

The International
Awards Gala
Formal dinner. Hall of Fame. Recognition. The night that sets the standard.
This is the night the group comes together to recognise its best. The room looks the part. The energy matches it.
A formal dinner honouring outstanding achievement across every state and every level of the business. This year, a special Hall of Fame presentation marks fifty years of the people who built this group.
The kind of night that stays with you.
Dress: Formal.
Let the Games Begin
Casual food and drinks on the terrace. Aus v Fiji on the big screen. Bring your competitive side.
Night two is a different energy entirely. Trade the formal wear for your favourite jersey and head to the open-air Grands Leisure Deck at The Star for an evening built around sport, good company, and friendly competition.
Australia takes on Fiji in the Rugby League World Cup on the big screen. Then get involved: Sumo Wrestling, Giant Twister, Power Strike. Cheer from the sidelines or throw yourself in. Either way, bring your competitive side.
Dress: Sport-inspired. Jersey, team colours, or your own athletic twist.
The Official 50th Birthday Celebration
Under the Story Bridge. Live music. The night we've waited fifty years for.
The grand finale. An evening beneath one of Brisbane's most iconic landmarks, bringing together current and former members to mark fifty years of Professionals in style.
Live music, great company, and a celebration worthy of the occasion. Arrive by public ferry for the full BrisVegas experience.
The night we've waited fifty years for.
Dress: After five with a touch of gold.

Queensland's number one agent. Four years running. It almost never happened.
