Registrations are now open for our End of Year Events 2025!

We’re wrapping up the year with something a little different: a bowling Tournament of Peers. Held across Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Adelaide, which exchange will knock down the competition to become IAA’s bowling champions?

We invite you to an evening of tenpin bowling, good food, and great company. Whether you’re in it for the strikes or just here to give it a go, this event is for everyone. It’s all about connection and a bit of fun to close out the year.

Each event will feature casual team bowling, prizes, and scores that feed into a national leaderboard.

Bragging rights are on the line for your local IX.

Registrations now open!

This year’s IAA Convergent series has taken us across the country, raising a glass to 30 Years of Peers with our incredible community.

Since our last newsletter, we’ve shared gin and ping pong in Adelaide, toured a rum distillery in Sydney, sipped whisky under chandeliers in Brisbane, and indulged in bacon/whisky pairings in Perth. Each stop brought its own flavour, but the real highlight was the people. Thank you to everyone who came along to celebrate with us!

We’re already dreaming up what IAA Convergent 2026 will look like. Until then, enjoy a few snapshots from the road.
