AVA Gala Dinner

The AVA Gala Dinner is renowned as a fantastic night of celebration. It’s the perfect opportunity to celebrate our great profession and recognise the veterinarians who drive our profession forward, thanks to their innovative and scientific achievements and their outstanding dedication and service.

The theme this year is Black and gold … with a splash of the 80’s! For the young vets that might not know, 80’s fashion was fun and the music was memorable. It’s time to sparkle in your black and gold best - or dig out your favourite flouro - and let your hair down for a night of dinner, dancing and celebration.
