Car wash showcase expands to two new cities this October
Following packed-out events in Brisbane and Perth last year, Rinse! — ACWA’s signature car wash showcase — is going trans-Tasman and heading south, with Auckland and Melbourne joining the tour for the first time in October 2025.
The event has become a favourite on the ACWA calendar, combining practical supplier insights with relaxed, no-pressure networking in a format that’s fast, friendly, and fluff-free.
“It’s everything you love about Rinse! — no long speeches, no boring PowerPoints, just fresh ideas, good people, and a social sip to end the day,” said ACWA President Blair Woolcott, “and with both cities hosting Rinse! for the first time, interest is expected to be high”.
Designed for both new and experienced operators, Rinse! is about giving attendees a chance to see what’s new, meet the right people, and soak up smart ideas to take back to their sites.
What to Expect
Supplier Showcase (1.00 PM – 5.00 PM)
The Rinse! Carwash Showcase puts the latest car wash solutions in one place. Attendees can explore new offerings, ask questions, and even tee up a deal or two — without the hard sell.
AfterWash Networking (4.00 PM – 5.00 PM)
Once the showcase winds down, the networking kicks in. AfterWash presents a relaxed opportunity to reconnect with familiar faces, make new contacts, and share stories.
