Annual Queenstown update in anaesthesia hosted by the Joint Anaesthesia Faculty Auckland (JAFA).

A practical and thoughtful programme focused on clinical updates relevant to the general anaesthetist. With a mix of invited speakers and hands-on workshops, AQUA 2025 offers a collegial environment for anaesthetists at all stages of their careers to reflect, learn, and connect.

Plus workshops:

  • The BATS on Ice (BOI) Ultrasound for Regional Anaesthesia Workshop, Thursday 28 August.
    The workshop offers a mix of short lectures and small-group instruction, complemented by hands-on scanning. Expert NZ faculty with anaesthetists from around the country will deliver this workshop. You can register for the BOI workshop during registration (places are limited).
  • 2xACLS workshops, Friday 29 August, afternoon.
  • POCUS Workshop, Saturday 30 August, afternoon.

All sessions are held in the mornings, leaving afternoons free to make the most of the workshops available, or to enjoy Queenstown—whether that means hitting the slopes (with buses running directly from the Heritage Hotel).
