We're delighted to confirm that UX Australia is back for 2026 — and this year we're joined by Design Research, our dedicated conference for the research community.

Design Research 2026 takes place on Wednesday 26 August, followed by UX Australia 2026 on Thursday 27 and Friday 28 August. All three days are in Sydney.

This year's events are produced in partnership with Web Directions, bringing together two communities that have shaped design and research practice in Australia for well over a decade.

Registration is open now. Find out more and register for UX Australia, or explore Design Research.
