Why
Spruiked as "the region’s premier national and regional security event for the land defence sector” Land Forces 2026 will ’invade’ Boorloo (Perth) at the Perth Convention & Exhibition Centre on 6-8 October.
The Military Industrial Complex (MIC) - joined at the hip with government - will be on full display, with the addition of Academia (MIAC). The cost to the taxpayer for security alone at Land Forces is $10+ million. Join us to protest:
- weapons and war's mass destruction of the planet and humanity
- defence expenditure at the expense of mitigating climate change and properly funding housing, health and education
- the State Government's aim to make defence the 2nd largest industry in WA, including a proposed ‘missile manufacturing hub’ (possibly in Collie), without consulting the community
- AUKUS and the US Alliance
- Land Forces exhibitors aiding and abetting the genocide in Gaza
And to debunk the myths that preparing for war brings peace; and nuclear weapons are needed for deterrence.
Venue, march route and final destination TBC - pending permit. We look forward to your solidarity!
