About

Kimberley Writers Festival 2021

Here it seems there is no wall between the writers and the audience. This kind of intimacy and love I think is hard to beat by other writers festivals.
Agustinus Wibowo, acclaimed Indonesian writer and guest of the 2015 Kimberley Writers Festival

Be inspired, entertained and connected at the Kimberley Writers Festival in Kununurra from 20-22 August 2021.

This one-of-a-kind writer’s festival is held in one of Australia’s most stunning, dramatic and remote locations, providing an opportunity to meet authors and special guests in an informal environment. It’s a completely different experience to big city writers’ festivals.

Now in its 15th year, the 2021 program will include workshops, readings, a literary breakfast, and more.
