About the Expo

More than an expo.
It's a movement.

The Celebrating Women Expo is a flagship event of the Yeah The Girls 40 Plus community — a fast-growing platform supporting women over 40 to rebuild confidence, connection, and purpose.

This year we're bringing the Expo to the stunning Pumphouse at Darling Harbour — a beautiful heritage venue that perfectly captures the warmth and energy of our community. Entry is completely free. Come as you are. Bring a friend. Leave feeling inspired.

Whether you're going through a big life change, looking to connect with like-minded women, or simply wanting a day that fills your cup — this is the place for you.

"No woman should suffer in silence."
— Martha Mok, Founder, Yeah The Girls 40+
