It is with great excitement that Rotary Club of Melbourne announces Melbourne as the host city for the 2023 Rotary International Convention, attracting over 20,000 delegates and the largest Conference secured this century for Victoria. Thirty years since Melbourne hosted the same international event.
 
President Robert Fisher announced: "This is fantastic news for Rotary in our part of the world. Huge congratulations are due to Hugh Bucknall, the Melbourne Convention Bureau, the D9800 Bid Team, many of our own members and countless others who put their collective shoulder to the wheel and demonstrated to Rotary International the kind of magnificent Convention we would stage in Melbourne!"

This is a Big Deal!
 
 
Melbourne is a Big Events City! The global spotlight will be on Melbourne and how we present ourselves to the world.
 
The Convention will take place in late May 2023 using superb venues; Rod Laver Arena and the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre. All activities and events are within the "Heart and Soul" of Melbourne.
 
This is now a Multi-District project initiated by RC Melbourne and D9800. A vital part of hosting is to have an engaged and energised volunteer team to assist all visitors during the Convention.
 
So all Rotarians: “Save The Dates” 27-31 May 2023!
