Pack the bags, it's time to head north to Indonesia because Piddington is going back for our 2025 Bali Conference!
Join us in WA's favourite island getaway for a weekend of collegiality, CPD and contributing to access to justice. The Conference is being held at Renaissance Resort, Uluwatu over the WA Day Long Weekend from Friday 30 May 2025 - Sunday 1 June 2025. Convened by Lucy Clark (Tehan Legal) and Grace Ritter (Cullen Macleod Lawyers), the 10th Piddington Bali Conference brings a new venue, new location and best of Bali you love together.
