We are working very hard behind the scenes preparing for the 2012 forum. The postcard will be released in the next few days - we are very pleased with the design! The workshops and sesions are currently being finalised, social function venues are being sourced and tested, and the committee is working hard to make sure the whole community embraces the event.
We are still on track for opening of regiatsrtions on September 1, with the program to be posted on August 22. Not long now!
The International Millinery Forum aims to provide milliners from around the globe with an opportunity to share skills, source the latest trends and get a head start on the up coming seasonal trends. The International Millinery Forum is open to both aspiring and professional milliners from around the world.

Wagga Wagga Travel & Accommodation
Wagga Wagga is a vibrant regional City nestled on the banks of the magnificent Murrumbidgee River. The original inhabitants, the Wiradjuri were the largest Aboriginal tribe in New South Wales. It is from their language the city is named. It is generally accepted that “Wagga” means crow and repeating it means the plural, hence “the place of many crows”. From these proud origins to the culturally rich community that exists today, Wagga Wagga takes its place as the capital of the Riverina region providing an exciting and yet relaxed lifestyle for residents and visitors. With over 60,000 people living in Wagga, we have the lifestyle and facilities to suit everyone.
