The CBCC Youth Expo is back, and it’s bigger than ever!
We invite you to attend our Youth Expo, where innovation meets inspiration for youth aged 14-24. Originally created to inspire youth and celebrate our program, CEO For A Day!, the Youth Expo has grown beyond that to become a stand-alone event dedicated to youth in Canterbury-Bankstown.
As a launching pad for your dreams, you will have a chance to meet business visionaries, talk to sports stars from local sporting teams such as the Bulldogs or the Bruins, and enjoy exciting live performances throughout the day.
You will have a chance to hear from our local decision makers, explore the Western Sydney University campus, and connect with inspiring organisations and charities dedicated to helping you and the community reach higher and aim bigger.
Get ready to discover your potential. Save the 2024 Youth Expo in your calendars today!
The CBCC held their first Youth Expo ever in 2023 at the new Western Sydney University campus in the heart of Bankstown.
Over 200 youth and their families attended the Expo over the course of the day, mingling and chatting with over 50 stallholders that gave them a glimpse of all that Canterbury-Bankstown has to offer them.
From youth organisations to charities to small businesses to even the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, the Expo inspired and empowered young people and their families to explore their potential and opportunities for their present and future.
With such a resounding success, the CBCC can’t wait to see what’s next for our youth in the area. Bring on 2024!
This project was jointly funded by the Commonwealth and the New South Wales Government.
Youth Expo 2024 was a vibrant celebration of our amazing youth! We want to highlight the unique potential in every young person, fostering an environment of respect, support, and encouragement to boost their confidence and resilience.
The event was a hit, with appearances by the Mayor, Deputy Mayor, councillors, and East Hills MP Kylie Wilkinson. The Bulldogs even dropped by to add some extra excitement! A big thanks to Multicultural NSW for their contribution and support.
As part of the CBCC CEO for a Day initiative, the Youth Expo was a 360-degree platform for youth to engage, connect, and enquire. This event was a powerful reminder of the potential in every young person. We can’t wait to keep this tradition going and inspire our future leaders!
