Autocare 2025, Australia’s premier automotive training event for technicians and workshop owners, returns to Brisbane on 20–21 June – and the incredible Autocare Trade Show is free to attend for anyone working in the automotive industry.
The Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre will host over 120 leading brands, showcasing the latest in workshop tools, diagnostic technology, parts, equipment, services, and business solutions. From global brands to homegrown innovators, it’s your chance to connect with the companies driving the future of automotive.
Trade show visitors can also catch the action on the Product Showcase Stage, where tools, equipment, and services are brought to life through engaging demonstrations that offer practical insights and real ideas to help improve workshop efficiency and performance.
Alongside the Product Showcase Stage, teams of apprentices from independent workshops will race against the clock to complete hands-on mechanical challenges in the Flying Spanners Competition – a fast-paced celebration of emerging talent in the industry.
Trade Show attendees are also invited to the Autocare Networking Happy Hour on Friday afternoon – a relaxed chance to connect with peers, suppliers and partners, share ideas, and strengthen business and career opportunities.
In addition to the free trade show, Autocare is Australia’s largest automotive training event, offering world-class ticketed training from both Australian and international experts. The training programs deliver high-impact, highly practical sessions tailored for workshop owners, managers, technicians, and apprentices.
The Workshop Management Program is designed specifically for business owners and managers, offering actionable strategies to improve profitability, streamline operations, enhance customer experience, and build high-performing teams. These sessions are grounded in real-world experience and focused on long-term workshop success.
The Technical Training Program features diagnostics, J2534 programming with popular brands, EV servicing, emission control systems, oscilloscope essentials, accurate AC diagnosis and more. Delivered by leading Australian and international trainers, these sessions equip technicians and apprentices with the latest techniques, tools, and insights needed to stay ahead in a fast-changing industry.
For those seeking even more learning, Autocare also includes two exclusive pre-show training sessions on Thursday 19 June, offering deep-dive content from renowned international trainers. These separately ticketed sessions offer a valuable head start before the main event begins.
Running alongside Autocare is the National Light Vehicle Modification Summit — a bi-annual forum dedicated to exploring the future of vehicle modifications in Australia that brings regulators and industry leaders together to address challenges and help shape a modern, fit-for-purpose regulatory framework.
Autocare 2025 is hosted by the Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association (AAAA) and proudly sponsored by mycar Tyre & Auto.
