The City of Playford will again host the Positive Futures Expo on Wednesday 27 May

2026, for people living with disability to explore opportunities in work, learning,

independence and community life.

Held from 10am to 3pm at the Playford Civic Centre, Elizabeth, the annual event is

designed to connect attendees with practical information, local services and

opportunities to support their personal and professional goals.

The Positive Futures Expo has become an important event for the community, helping

people living with disability explore new pathways, while also learning more about

NDIS and other support services.

Mayor Glenn Docherty said the expo reflects the City of Playford’s continued

commitment to creating inclusive opportunities for everyone in the community.

“The Positive Futures Expo is about empowering people living with disability to explore

what’s possible — whether that’s finding work, continuing education or building

independence and celebrating their abilities,” Mayor Docherty said.

“It’s fantastic to see so many organisations come together to support our community

through this event in a practical and meaningful way.”

With a wide range of exhibitors and service providers in one place, the expo offers

attendees the chance to discover their strengths, build confidence and access

information that can help shape their future.

A highlight of this year’s event is the opportunity to experience immersive virtual reality

job interview simulations and virtual career experiences designed to build confidence

and help attendees feel prepared for the next step in their journey.

The City of Playford is proud to work alongside local businesses, schools, community

organisations and service providers to deliver the expo each year, with social

enterprise food vendors Pete’s Tasty Treats and Archer and Alice also on site at this

year’s event.

Care, Windamere Park, Plan Partners, Government of South Australia - Office for
