Australia’s leading agrifood innovation event, evokeAG., is heading back to Melbourne in 2026, the city where it all began. And until Sunday, 3 August 2025, pre-sale tickets are available at a 25% discount.
Taking place at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre on 17-18 February 2026, evokeAG. 2026 will bring together the boldest thinkers from across the agrifood ecosystem: founders, funders, producers, researchers, policymakers and beyond.
The agrifood sector spans the entire journey of food, fibre and agricultural products, from the paddock, through processing and distribution, to the plate. It plays a vital role in driving food security, nutrition, and sustainable growth. evokeAG. brings this entire ecosystem together, fostering collaboration across the value chain and sparking new ideas with real-world impact.
It’s all about investing in ideas, innovating together, and creating real impact, a vision captured in the event’s new, evergreen theme: Invest. Innovate. Impact.
“There’s something special about returning to Melbourne,” said John Harvey, AgriFutures Australia, Managing Director.
“This is where the evokeAG. journey started, and since then, it’s grown into a global platform for ideas, connections and change. Our 2026 event will celebrate that evolution and spark the next one.”
“Each year, we evolve the event to reflect what the sector needs. evokeAG. 2026 will explore the big ideas and big opportunities that will shape the future of food and farming, here and around the world.”
