Adelaide International Women’s Day Breakfast

Event Details

​The Adelaide International Women’s Day (IWD) breakfast is the largest event celebrating IWD in Australia and it is the largest annual women’s event in the Adelaide calendar.

The 2026 event will welcome Katherine Bennell-Pegg, the 2026 Australian of the Year, the first astronaut to officially represent Australia, and the first Australian woman to receive professional astronaut wings.

Following her graduation from the European Space Agency astronaut training in 2024 as part of the ‘Hoppers’ class, she became qualified to represent Australia in space on missions to the International Space Station and the Moon.

She is a Director at the Australian Space Agency, a reservist Group Captain in the Royal Australian Air Force, and a space engineer who has worked around the globe on human spaceflight, exploration, space robotics and earth science missions and technologies. Katherine lives in Adelaide with her husband and 2 young daughters. We look forward to welcoming her at the 2026 Adelaide International Women’s Day Breakfast.
