The Australian Shoe Fair is Australia's premier Trade Fair for the footwear industry. It was developed in 2006 as a result of demand from suppliers and industry stakeholders for a high quality, industry operated and truly independent footwear Fair for the Australian market.

It is held in Melbourne during September, along with Fashion Exposed, Preview and the Leather, Bags & Accessories Fair.

The Australian Shoe Fair is the only exhibition that students from the footwear program will enter as a department. However, there are other shows and fairs in which our students participate, often creating footwear to compliment garments designed by fashion students.
