Sustainability at WISS
The Women in Sport Summit is committed to delivering a more sustainable event that reflects our responsibility to people, community and the future of sport.
Adelaide is the perfect city to support this approach. With Adelaide Oval, hotels, restaurants, public transport, cycling routes and the CBD all in close proximity, delegates can easily walk, cycle, use public transport or carpool throughout their WISS experience.
Adelaide is recognised as one of Australia’s great festival cities, with a strong culture of events and a growing community expectation that events are delivered sustainably.
At WISS, we are embracing that opportunity.
Travel sustainably
We encourage delegates, speakers, exhibitors and staff to:
- Walk where practical
- Ride a bicycle or e-bike
- Use public transport
- Carpool where driving is necessary
- Consider electric or hybrid vehicles
Bring your own water bottle
Please bring your own reusable water bottle to WISS.
Water refill stations will be available throughout the event, helping us reduce single-use plastic and keep delegates hydrated.
Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.
WISS will take a digital-first approach wherever possible, reducing unnecessary printing and single-use materials.
We will work with Adelaide Oval, suppliers, exhibitors and catering partners to reduce waste, improve recycling and reuse event materials wherever possible.
Your WISS journey matters
Small choices across thousands of delegates can make a meaningful difference.
Walk it. Ride it. Share it. Refill it. Reuse it.
Together, we can make WISS 2026 a more sustainable Summit for Adelaide and for the future of women in sport.
