The Australian Women’s Weekly Health Summit is back in 2025 with an expanded national tour across five cities, following a sell-out debut in Sydney last year. The summit is presented by Are Media in partnership with Priceline Pharmacy.
Running from 9 August to 11 October, the half-day events will be held in Sydney, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Adelaide and Perth. Each summit will deliver expert insights and personal stories focused on key women’s health topics including perimenopause and menopause, mental health, longevity, and nutrition.
Following its record as Are Media’s fastest-selling event, the summit now aims to broaden its reach, offering content-led experiences that drive engagement and build community. Sophie Tedmanson, Editor of The Australian Women’s Weekly, said the 2025 series will continue the brand’s long-standing commitment to women’s health.

“From our first issue in 1933, health has been a core pillar of our brand,” Tedmanson said. “The 2025 Health Summit will not only build on that legacy; it will also amplify our mission: to lead the national conversation on women’s health, spark connection, and break down taboos through shared stories.”
The line-up
The line-up features well-known Australians including Maggie Beer AO, Lisa Curry AO, Julie Goodwin, Jessica Rowe, Michelle Bridges, Melissa Leong, Edwina Bartholomew, and Erin Phillips OAM.
The Weekly’s own Fran Abdallaoui (Food Director) and Ashleigh Austen (Health Editor) will also appear, along with Priceline pharmacists offering health advice at each location.
Corrina Brazel, General Manager Marketing at Priceline Pharmacy, said the partnership aligns with the brand’s focus on women’s wellbeing. “Supporting women through every life stage is at the heart of what we do. We’re proud to bring this initiative to more communities across the country,” she said.
Priceline’s new “Anything Menopause” program equips pharmacists with accredited training to support women experiencing menopause, a topic that will feature prominently at the summit events.
A portion of ticket sales will go to the Sisterhood Foundation, Priceline’s charitable initiative supporting women and girls’ health across Australia.
