CELEBRATING 5 YEARS
Aotearoa Lash Conference
There's no place like home. Rotorua holds a special place in the heart of the Aotearoa Lash Conference. It’s where the seeds of the conference were first planted and where the vision for a national gathering of lash artists truly began.
Returning to Rotorua for 2026 feels like coming home to the birthplace of our industry movement. It's a city known for its creativity, culture, hospitality, and deep sense of identity. It’s the perfect setting for inspiration, connection, and growth.

More inspiration. More implementation.
MASTERCLASS ENERGY
Over the past five years, the conference has evolved alongside the industry itself. What began as a space to connect and inspire has grown into something more focused and more intentional. In 2026 we’ve shifted towards what matters most, actual hands-on, practical education that creates real change. This is about learning tangible skills you can immediately implement in your business, refining your artistry, elevating your technical ability. We want you leaving with knowledge that moves you forward.
This is where inspiration meets execution. This is Masterclass energy.
