What should I wear?
The Diversity@Work Awards naturally attract a diverse audience: people from community, private and government sectors, people from numerous cultural backgrounds, people from all kinds of diverse backgrounds. At past Diversity@Work Awards presentations, there has been a corresponding diversity of styles of dress including national dress. We are proud of this tradition and encourage you to wear what you feel comfortable in, keeping in mind that it is a dinner event. While there is no strict dress code, if you want a rule of thumb, we imagine most attendees will probably wear something in the range of smart business to cocktail/evening wear.
How long will the event run?
Guests will arrive from 7.15pm with the event to start at 7.30pm. We estimate that the evening will finish around midnight.
