WAVE 2026 + ODA – In Person & Virtual Conference

WAVE 2026 + ODA returns with our successful hybrid conference format at the Esplanade Hotel, Fremantle on the 21st & 22nd March 2026. 
 
In response to the sellout of ALL our In Person registrations at WAVE 2025, we are going bigger and better for WAVE 2026. More space for delegates and a bigger Exhibition Area.

As usual, In Person & Virtual registrations are available, both offering delegates the same CPD opportunities. The total CPD available will be confirmed soon but we will be aiming for 20+ CPD hours, which will include at least 10 hours Therapeutic, 5 hours Interactive and 2 hours Interactive Therapeutic. To score the maximum CPD available at WAVE 2026, you just need to attend all the conference sessions, watch all the Supplier CPD and pass all the optional MCQS. You will have plenty of time either side of the WAVE weekend to complete all the optional extras.
 
We are very pleased to announce a repeat of our past collaboration with the Optical Dispensers Australia, with not one, but two Dispenser Workshops on the Saturday at WAVE. Open to dispensers, practice managers, optoms, or anyone wanting to further their dispensing education. ODA Members have a 30% discount applied on the registration fees displayed. Registration includes an invitation to attend our legendary WAVE Saturday Sundowner!
 
If you are considering staying at the Esplanade, you can once again book your discounted accommodation with Optometry WA to save yourself $$$.

Time Critical are also running two CPR courses on Friday 20th March 2026 - You can register for those now & places are limited.  Open to all, not just WAVE delegates.

WAVE offers all our delegates education, collaboration, and social opportunities to catch up with colleagues at our popular poolside sundowner. 

See you soon at WAVE 2026. Any queries, please email admin@optometrywa.org.au.
