How do I become an event manager or planner in Australia?

Published: Aug 2, 2025

To become an event manager in Australia, you typically need a Diploma of Event Management or a Bachelor’s degree in event management, tourism, or business. Hands-on experience is key, so internships and volunteering at events can boost your skills.

Many event planners start by working in hospitality, marketing, or corporate event roles before moving into full-time event management. Developing strong communication, budgeting, and logistics skills will help you succeed.

If you’re looking to start your journey in event management, visit Pathway to Aus or book a consultation at Pathway to Aus consultation.
