The World Angus Forum is coming to Brisbane, Australia on the 7th – 8th May 2025! Cattle breeders, Angus enthusiasts, and beef industry professionals from every corner of the globe are invited to converge in Australia for this extraordinary event.
Marking the first time the World Angus Forum has returned to Australian shores in nearly 30 years, the 2025 event will showcase the highest quality beef run sustainably in some of the harshest environments and will explore the concepts and challenges of the Australian Beef Industry’s quest for Carbon Neutral 2030.
Kicking off in Sydney on April 29th, 2025, the World Angus Forum will commence with a welcome cruise on Sydney Habour, with the days following playing host to an event pre-tour that will travel Australia’s southeast, visiting operations across the beef supply chain utilising Angus genetics, including Millah Murrah Angus, Bald Blair Angus and Rangers Valley Feedlot.
Following the pre tour, delegates will congregate in Tamworth, NSW for a two-day expo event at Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre (AELEC), pulling together the largest showcase of Australian Angus cattle and genetics. The Expo will be the perfect showcase for members of Angus Australia to bring cattle to Tamworth and have them on display for our international and Australian guests.
Finally, the forum event will hit Brisbane on May 7th and 8th and will provide delegates with insight into the latest technology, genetics and innovation available within the beef industry, with, a theme of ‘Beef for a Better Planet’.
Following the forum event, a post tour will provide delegates the opportunity to venture to central Queensland, to see firsthand the use of Angus genetics in the state’s varied climate.
“As CEO, and on behalf of the Organising Committee of the World Angus Forum 2025, it is our great pleasure to invite you to attend World Angus Forum 2025,” said Angus Australia Chief Executive Officer Scott Wright.
“The World Angus Forum provides a unique opportunity for Angus breeders and industry professionals to come together to learn from one another and to share their passion for this iconic breed. It also plays an important role in promoting the Angus breed globally and in advancing the knowledge and understanding of cattle breeding and management.”
“Preparations are well under way to deliver an educational and informative event that brings together leading experts and advocates in a broad range of fields, as well as the opportunity to experience Australia with its unique wildlife and environment.”
The World Angus Forum will be an excellent opportunity for members to showcase Australian Angus genetics to a worldwide audience, with delegates expected from countries including North America, Europe, UK, Ireland and South America.
