G’day, mates! If you’re into animal ethics and research, mark your calendars for the 2025 ANZCCART Conference, “Innovation and Ethics” happening from July 29th to July 31st in the heart of Brisbane City. This fantastic event is set to take place at Roma Street, and it’s your golden ticket to dive deep into the latest breakthroughs and ethical discussions in the field. Whether you’re a professional or simply fascinated by the world of research, this conference is bound to offer something interesting for everyone.
The buzz this year is all about how innovation is changing the landscape of animal research, right from cutting-edge technologies to new methodologies that are shaping future practices. With top-notch speakers and engaging panels, 2025 ANZCCART Conference is where the brightest minds converge. Plus, you’ll be right in the hub of Brisbane City, which means an exciting urban backdrop to an inspiring learning experience.
Tucked away near the conference venue, there’s a delightful little garden café called “Roma Street Parkland Café.” It’s a perfect spot to grab a quick coffee and homemade pastries before diving into a day packed with sessions. This cozy nook offers a peaceful escape where locals love to unwind amidst lush greenery.
Your best bet to reach Roma Street is by jumping on a train to Roma Street Station. Trains are frequent, and it’s just a short stroll to the venue. If you’re driving, showing up early will snag you a good parking spot at Roma Street Parkland carpark, which can fill up fast. Otherwise, rideshare services like Uber are all the rage in Brisbane – quick, easy, and no parking dramas.
Forget the touristy spots and head to “John Mills Himself,” a local favorite tucked under the street for excellent coffee and toasted sandwiches. For a hearty evening meal, the “Pig ‘N’ Whistle” on Eagle Street Pier serves up classic Aussie pub grub with a killer view of the Brisbane River, the perfect way to unwind after a day of conferencing.
You know how Brisbane City can be in July – cool mornings and evenings with pleasantly warm days. Perfect for a light jacket or sweater. Don’t forget sunscreen; it’s Queensland, after all, and the sun can be a tad cheeky even in winter!
If you’re looking to have a truly Brisbane experience, why not extend your stay a bit? There’s plenty to see and do in this vibrant city that complements your conference visit.
Why not start your day with a leisurely stroll through South Bank Parklands? Grab a coffee at “The Jetty South Bank” and enjoy a tranquil walk along the Brisbane River. It’s a great way to center yourself before the conference kicks off.
End your day with a nightcap at “Felons Brewing Co.”, nestled under the Story Bridge. With a selection of locally brewed beers and a lively atmosphere, it’s the perfect spot to unwind and discuss the day’s insights with newfound friends.
Brisbane’s public transport system is a breeze! Trains, buses, and ferries connect you to almost every corner of the city. If you’re coming to Roma Street, hop on a train to Roma Street Station or a bus to the Transit Centre. And don’t forget the CityCat ferry – not exactly a direct route but a lovely way to see the city from the water.
Parking can be a bit of a hassle around Roma Street, but there are a few tricks. Try looking for cheaper spots around Kelvin Grove or Spring Hill if you don’t mind a short walk or bus ride in. On-street parking meters are free after 7 PM – something to keep in mind if you’re sticking around post-event.
If you’re staying overnight, consider “Gambaro Hotel” for a bit of luxury, right on Caxton Street with a famous seafood restaurant. For something more budget-friendly, “YHA Brisbane” offers affordable rates and a friendly vibe. For the middle ground, “Ibis Brisbane” provides a comfortable and convenient stay without breaking the bank.
