We’ve set our sights on sunny Brisbane for the 11th AMSA National Men’s Shed Gathering.
The AMSA National Men’s Shed Gathering is the Australian Men’s Shed Association’s premier event. Hosted every two years, we bring together the national Men’s Shed community and stakeholders for learning, development and networking.
Our goals each year are simple, to continue connecting Men’s & Community Sheds, shed members and relevant stakeholders with important knowledge, networks and information to bolster the strength and sustainability of the Men’s Shed movement.
We are excited to be joined by the Queensland Men’s Shed Association as co-host and our major partner Fair Dinkum Builds, to welcome shedders to sunny Brisbane from 24 March to Thursday 26 March 2026 for the 11th AMSA National Men’s Shed Gathering.
Our theme is centred on the philosophy of “Building Healthy Communities” – recognising the practical, social and wellbeing benefits Men’s & Community Sheds bring to men, their families and the wider community. Based at Royal on the Park Hotel & Suites, our program content will cover three key streams: Shed Development, Health & Wellbeing and Community Development.
The three-day program will feature:
- 
Shed Tours and Welcome Reception & Trade Exhibition
 - 
A Shedder’s BBQ Breakfast and engaging conference sessions
 - 
The announcement of the 2026 National Men’s Shed Award winners at our signature Shedder’s Dinner
 
This event is about connection, learning, and mateship and we’d love your shed to be part of it. We encourage all sheds to support a member or two to get along to what we know will be another great national event.
