Livewire Live is back in 2026

I’m usually a very good sleeper, but lately I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night. Not because I’m worried about markets or my investments, and I don’t have a newborn!

​We’re approaching that time of year when, at Livewire, we step out of the online world and bring our passion for investing to the live arena. I’m talking about Livewire Live, our annual investor day, where Australia’s leading investors take the stage at the Art Gallery of NSW for a day packed full of investing insights.

​So why does it keep me up (and it does every year)? Because I care deeply about the experience attendees have, and I want to create a truly memorable experience that provides insightful, practical insights for investors.

​Over the 10 years we’ve been running this event, we’ve delivered on that ambition and continually raised the bar. The topics are always on point, the speakers are energised to be there, and the formats are engaging.

“You’ve nailed it year after year. You are the premier event for our industry for quality of speakers, content and format.” - 2025 event attendee

​Livewire Live is taking place on the 22nd of September at The Art Gallery of NSW. I’m pouring my energy into making it an exceptional day - as is the Livewire Team and the cracking speakers we’ve assembled to present this year.

Early Bird Tickets and event details are available here. ​I’d love to see you on the day.

What’s on the agenda for Livewire Live 2026?

From powerful megatrends and the economic backdrop to the best ideas across Australian and global equities, our 2026 agenda covers a broad spectrum of asset classes. 

​We’ve also introduced a session on behavioural economics and investor psychology - arguably the most critical part of investing, but so often overlooked.

​I’ve been working with our speakers on the session outlines and I can’t wait to see what they bring to the stage. 

​On the agenda

• The 7 Deadly Sins of Investing: Stop letting psychological biases destroy your returns.
• Where is the value? Top Aussie and global stock pickers reveal their highest-conviction long-term plays.
  
• 5 Shocking Predictions: Bold, contrarian calls for 2027 and beyond.
• Signal vs. Noise: How to tune out market media hype and focus on the macro forces that actually matter.
• Riding the Megatrends: A deep dive into four structural shifts and how to play them.
