About Us

The inaugural Newcastle Writers Festival was held in 2013 and was a resounding success. More than 70 writers participated in 38 sessions. In 2014, the festival was enhanced by the addition of a popular children’s program. More than 100 writers participated in the extended festival and more than 6500 people attended the event, from preschoolers to adults. The 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 festivals were bigger and better still, and we’re looking forward to exceeding expectations with our eighth event in April 2020.
