COCKTAILS & CONVERSATIONS WITH THE TROPICAL STYLE QUEEN INTERIOR DESIGNER ALANNA BAXTER

Wednesday November 25, 2026 | 4.30pm - 6pm | $25 per person

With over two decades spent shaping beautiful spaces, building businesses and cultivating a reputation for doing things her own way, Alanna Baxter knows a thing or two about ambition, creativity and the extraordinary demands of small business.

An accomplished interior designer, entrepreneur and mother of three, Alanna's career has been deeply rooted in design and the communities of people who dare to build something of their own.

Raised on the beautiful South Coast, a place that continues to hold a special place in her heart, Alanna returns with a story that reaches well beyond the world of design.

A passionate advocate for women in business and the creative industries, she brings a refreshingly candid perspective on resilience, reinvention and our curious relationship with capacity of how far we can stretch ourselves, what happens when we reach our limits, and what we discover on the other side.

Behind the polished portfolio lies a far less conventional story of ambition, adversity, humour and the wonderfully imperfect business of being human.

Because perhaps the most interesting thing about a woman isn't what she's accomplished, but who she has yet to become.

Join us for the inspiring session with Alanna and stay for dinner afterwards to truly enjoy the Bangalay way of life.
