First started in 2015 at Fairfield Showground in Western Sydney, at the peak of the anti-halal movement by a small minority of racists and bigots, the Halal Expo Australia has grown into a highly successful international yearly iconic event.

The Halal Expo organising team led by Mr Syed Atiq ul Hasan, an award winning journalist, community worker and event organiser persevered against all opposition by anti-halal bigots and remained steadfast in promoting and showcasing halal concepts in Australia.
