The social program once again played an important role in bringing the Car Wash Show Australia community together in 2026.
Prewash Welcome Event
Celebrations began with the Prewash Welcome Event, giving attendees the opportunity to reconnect with industry colleagues, meet new faces and enjoy an evening of networking ahead of the Show.
The venue was buzzing with conversation and anticipation as guests looked forward to the days ahead.
ACWA would like to thank its Prewash Welcome Event sponsor, Slipstream Pro.


Party in the Wash Bay
Wednesday night’s Party in the Wash Bay provided one of the standout moments of the 2026 Show. The venue came alive as attendees gathered for an evening of entertainment and good company, with an atmosphere that continued long after the festivities began.
Here, we also took the opportunity to celebrate and farewell Fiona Tointon, a much-loved and highly respected member of the ACWA community. In recognition of her outstanding contribution to the industry, Fiona was presented with a Distinguished Service Award as she embarked on her well-deserved retirement.
Party in the Wash Bay was a fantastic opportunity for industry colleagues to let their hair down and strengthen connections, whilst being wowed by Dr Hubble and his roving bubble tricks! The celebrations certainly left plenty of talking points for the following morning!
The night brought the industry together to celebrate another successful Show and the relationships that make our community so special.
ACWA would like to thank its Party in the Wash Bay sponsor, Velocity Vehicle Care.
