VELEO has officially arrived. Our next-generation leisure management platform made its debut at the WA Aquatic & Recreation Conference 2026, marking the start of a new era for aquatics, fitness and recreation centres across Australia and New Zealand.
On 26 and 27 August, the curtain came down and VELEO stepped into the spotlight.
We officially revealed our next-generation leisure management platform at the WA Aquatic & Recreation Conference 2026, hosted by LIWA (Leisure Institute of WA Aquatics) at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre.
This wasn’t just a product launch. VELEO is a whole new platform, built from the ground up to change the way aquatics, fitness and recreation centres run. And there was nowhere better to share it than face to face with the WA community.
Jonas Leisure came to the conference as Platinum Sponsor, and we made every minute count. Our booth was home base for two full days of demos, catch-ups and plenty of coffee-fuelled conversations.
Alissa, Tom, Renee and Simon were on the stand, talking with operators, councils and partners from across the state. It was fantastic to reconnect with familiar faces and meet so many new ones.
VELEO was first teased at the ARV Industry Awards Gala in Melbourne earlier this year. That was the sneak peek. Perth was the main event.
VELEO is our cloud-based leisure management platform, designed for the way centres actually work today. It brings together:
Visitors got hands-on with live demos at the booth, with access control hardware on display alongside. The real highlight? Watching operators light up as they saw features they’ve been asking for, finally in action.
That’s the moment we’d been waiting for.
The speaker program delivered great insights that resonated with the room. The awards night was another standout, celebrating the achievements of the WA sector over the past year. Congratulations to all the nominees and winners.
A huge thank you to Leith, Hannah and the whole LIWA team for putting together such a well-run event. We’re already looking forward to continuing the partnership next year.
The WA Aquatic & Recreation Conference was where VELEO made its debut. Now we can’t wait to bring it to centres right across Australia and New Zealand.
