Upcoming Events

We're bringing you an exclusive masterclass.

Hosted by Nine Entertainment, join us for an intimate, skills-focused evening where three of the industry's sharpest minds pull back the curtain on what it actually takes to sell a show in 2026.

You'll be hearing from:

Donna Chang, Commissioning Editor, Stan/Nine

Lexi Landsman, Development Executive, BBC

Lizzie Cater, Development Producer, Easy Tiger

These powerhouses will share their inside secrets on crafting a compelling concept and pitching it with confidence - complete with real case study pitch materials you can learn from directly.

Expect honest insights, actionable takeaways and the kind of practical knowledge you won't get from Claude.

Moderated by Melissa Maclean, this is your chance to learn from women who've cracked the code and walk away ready to do it yourself.

Opportunity for Q & A and networking mix and mingle before and after the masterclass.

Step into a full day of skill‑building, real‑world insight and inspiration with leading journalists, presenters, authors and media innovators. From keynote speaker Dominique Schwartz to sessions on AI, national podcasting, online social safety including legal and regulatory considerations, finance, career strategy, and the realities of modern media, this event delivers practical tools for every stage of your career, followed by networking drinks at the end of the day.

So do ya hair, bust out your fanciest pluggers and make sure you don’t cop a toesssss violation at Women in Media Queensland’s 2026 Long Lunch.

Fashion Critical is the anonymous Aussie who sweeps the streets of Gundagai by day and serves up hilariously savage red carpet commentary to nearly 500,000 social media followers by night. After releasing her first book, Red carpet lewks and LOLs from an undercover fashion critic, FC is catching the bus to Brissie’s Shafston Hotel to spill the tea with Women in Media Queensland.

You will be able to grab a copy of her book on the day for her to sign and expect incredible raffle prizes with all proceeds going towards WIMQ’s Career Boost Scholarship for women in media in all fields.

Tickets include a two-course sit down lunch with free-flowing wine at East Brisbane’s ultimate urban oasis, the elevated pub Shafston Hotel.

Join Women in Media WA for the return of our much-loved Mid-Year Mixer - an evening of connection, conversation and community.

After a fantastic turnout last year, we’re bringing the mixer back for 2026!

Whether you’re a familiar face or joining us for the first time, this is your chance to catch up with industry friends, meet new people from across the media landscape, and unwind in great company at The Globe.

We welcome professionals and creatives from across journalism, broadcasting, communications, marketing, film, television, digital media and beyond - and attendees of all genders are encouraged to join us.
