Brisbane Disability Connection Expo 2022
Mother Nature may have stalled the staging of the Brisbane Disability Connection Expo 2022, Sponsored by Holistic Horizons, by a few weeks, but neither rain nor floods prevented the big event finally going ahead at the end of April, 2022.
The Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre was home to 5,000 visitors over two big days, browsing the 250 exhibitors, enjoying the giveaways and free entertainment but, most of all, getting out there once again to make valuable CONNECTIONS!
NDIS solutions were discovered, vital services and products were sourced and life-long relationships formed, but, above all lots of fun and enjoyment was had by all across two fabulous days all under one big roof! It was also a perfect event for providers to unite to also better service their participants.
Exhibitors and visitors commented on the positive and welcoming vibe as well as the quality and range of exhibitors. Visitors were able to exercise CHOICE and CONTROL over their NDIS plans while also receiving top-notch NDIS advice straight from the passionate experts themselves! And the best bit? Not having to organise child-minding with plenty of free fun to keep the kids entertained!
Our valuable sponsors and exhibitors were delighted to oblige, while at the same time shining the spotlight on their business brand, their passion and their understanding.
By bringing everyone together, in volumes, our events are fast becoming the biggest and best in Australia.

Brisbane Disability Staff Recognition Award Winners
After meeting, greeting and engaging all day at the expo, 398 guests were able to let down their hair and celebrate the best the industry has to offer at the Disability Leadership Organisaton’s Brisbane Disability Staff Recognition Awards 2022 sponsored by Holistic Horizons, while raising money for this year’s charity, RizeUp.
We managed to raise $27,000 for RizeUp, thanks to $5,000 donations from our friends at Aspire Hub and Let’s Connect and the auction of Holistic Horizon participant Benjamin Hynes’ beautiful Brisbane City artwork which raised a whopping $2,000.
