1. Can you attend one or 2 days or part thereof and can you pay for only 1 or 2 days.
Only one fee for whole event
2. Is there somewhere that has a breakdown of what’s on each day, maybe half hour by half-hour or something like that. So that people can choose what they want to go to see before they go.
Convention program details will be available closer to the event
3. What guest speakers will there be and what day and time.
That has not been published yet, but the outgoing and incoming international presidents will all talk at some stage
4. Do volunteers get in cheaper.
There is a reduced rate for volunteers, but you may miss certain sessions because of volunteering commitments. You need to get a Promo code to get the cheaper rate when you register.
5. Is there a list of individual events that volunteers can choose from, who do you get in touch with to volunteer at these things.
Volunteer registration is a separate thing
6. Where does the parade start and finish.
The exact start and finish is not available, but will be in and around the ’Tan’ and the botanical gardens. Due to public works we are not allowed to use Swanston Street and Federation Square. Shuttles will be provided following dispersal of the Parade – details will be in the convention program
7. What day is the parade on, do you have to register beforehand to be part of the parade. And are you given a shirt, or do you have to pay for it. Do you bring your club banner and do you wear your club uniforms.
To participate in the parade you must have registered for the convention. There will most likely be no special parade shirt for this event, participants wearing official Australian Uniform (Green Jacket, Taupe trousers, etc) will lead the group and others in club uniform will follow. Club banners are not allowed, we parade as a nation. Participants can bring individual mini flags to wave if they wish I believe.
8. What is the dress code for the convention, do you wear your club outfits or is it collar and tie and more formal.
Club uniform or smart casual for general attendees. District Governor Elects will wear their Green Jacket for the whole convention.
