The IPA World Conference, a significant event held once every three years, is set to take place at the Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre, with an expected turnout of 1,000 delegates from across the globe. Christchurch successfully secured the hosting rights for the conference, with the bid presented at the 2023 conference in Glasgow by Toni Talijancich, General Manager at Play Aotearoa, and backed by ChristchurchNZ and Tourism New Zealand Business Events.
The International Play Association (IPA) is dedicated to creating a world where all children have the right to play in their own way, and its membership includes play practitioners, researchers, educators, and businesses. This conference presents a significant opportunity for Christchurch and New Zealand to showcase their unique approach to bi-culturalism, diversity, and inclusion in the field of play.
Christchurch is renowned for its balance of work and play, and delegates will have the chance to explore the city and its natural surroundings, as well as experience the award-winning Margaret Mahy Playground, located conveniently near the conference venue. The conference is expected to leave a lasting legacy for the city.
