About the Digital Writers’ Festival

The Digital Writers’ Festival is an online writers’ festival dedicated to celebrating the work of writers from Australia and across the world, and fostering new relationships through collaboration between writers, where ever they may be. Everything takes place online, so location is no barrier to access – all you need is an internet connection.

DWF is a product of the Emerging Writers’ Festival, a not-for-profit organisation whose foundations are built on supporting emerging writers. EWF is a place where creativity and innovation are celebrated, where new talent is nurtured and where diverse voices from across Australia are represented. Support us to keep tickets free or low cost by making a tax-deductible donation today.

The 2019 Digital Writers’ Festival runs from Tuesday 29 October – Saturday 2 November.

Catch up on all of the events from DWF 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015 and 2014.
