The Queensland Gala Dinner & Awards is the highlight of the annual events calendar in the water industry.
This prestigious event celebrates the outstanding achievements of innovative individuals. It's a wonderful opportunity to connect with friends and colleagues across the water sector, to celebrate an industry dedicated to making a difference, and reflect on the past year in water.
