Brisbane Writers Festival
A literary festival celebrating writers and book readers
The Brisbane Writers Festival is a week-long festival held every year and features workshops and masterclasses, panel discussions, readings and events. The Festival highlights publishing issues that are faced by writers, how stories and characters can be developed as well as taking inspiration from successful writers.
The Brisbane Writers Festival education program Word Play, for young readers, writers and illustrators, has established a profile and respect with educators throughout Queensland, providing the opportunity for students to engage with national and international authors, illustrators, screenwriters, songwriters and playwrights.
The Festival also supports Write Across Queensland, where writers tour to regional and remote areas of Queensland to engage communities in broad and diverse conversations about reading, writing, books and ideas.
History:From 1962, the Brisbane Writers Festival has brought together readers, writers and innovators of literature to discover new writers and stories and to showcase those who have already made their mark in the industry.
