Upcoming ANAA Meetings

Acoustic Neuroma Association meetings are held in each Australian state throughout the year. The meetings are an opportunity for members and their families to come together, share information and hear about the latest developments in Acoustic Neuroma treatment. At each state meeting, an invited guest speaker gives a presentation on a topic related to acoustic neuromas. An update of the Association's activities is provided along with a time for members to share information and ask questions over lunch.

With all COVID restrictions lifted, we are now organising face to face member meetings in all states. Please monitor this page for specific arrangements for individual state meetings.

Can Anyone Attend
