Leaders and investors take centre stage at QSR Media Conference & Awards 2026

QSR Media's flagship industry event is back.

The QSR Media Conference & Awards 2026, powered by Red Bull, will take place on 12 October 2026 at the Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park, bringing together the leaders, operators, and investors shaping the future of Australia's quick service restaurant industry.

Two sessions this year focus on the people leading and funding Australian QSR right now.

The Leaders Panel puts some of the most recognised names in Australian QSR in one room. The panel aims to discuss what the current competitive landscape looks like from the inside, what has surprised them, and where they are placing their bets.

The QSR and Money Panel tackles what every growth-minded operator is asking: what do investors actually want right now? With private equity circling and franchise networks attracting institutional capital. The panel will give a frank account of what makes a brand investable and where the smart money is moving next.

Alongside the full conference programme, the QSR Media Awards will return to celebrate the brands setting the benchmark for innovation, customer experience, and performance across the sector.
