One of Australia’s most celebrated forums for literature, storytelling and big ideas, will be livestreaming its headline events from Sydney straight to Cheltenham Library.
Join us for four days of inspiring conversation and thought-provoking discussions featuring some of the world’s most celebrated authors and thinkers — including Stephanie Alexander, Antoinette Lattouf, Florence Knapp, Trent Dalton and more.
All events are free and attendees will even have the chance to submit questions to the Sydney stage during each session’s live Q&A.
This is a free event and a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the Sydney Writers’ Festival experience locally.
Enjoy a festival atmosphere and enjoy quality events with like-minded people. Whether you're a long-time literature lover or curious to see what it’s all about, we’d love to see you there!
