Ballarat Ageing Well Expo

The City of Ballarat delivers an annual Ballarat Ageing Well Expo. This expo is designed to provide valuable information and resources to people 55 years and over, carers, family members and friends. 

Attendees are provided with the opportunity to learn about the changes to aged care and explore options, services and supports that are available locally to help people age well.

The first Ballarat Ageing Well Expo was held in March 2025 at the Mercure Ballarat Hotel and Convention Centre. Attendees were able to meet a range of local organisations including aged care services, community-based health, and other support organisations as well as listen to presentations.
