writers’ festival 2025
That’s a Wrap!
THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ATTENDED
What a Weekend!
The Southern Highlands Writers' Festival is now over for another year—and what a wonderful event it was!
A heartfelt thank you to all the incredible authors who shared their words and wisdom, to our generous supporters, and to everyone who attended and helped make the SHWF2025 such a vibrant celebration of storytelling.
Special thanks to the fantastic team at Empire Cinemas for hosting us with such care and professionalism. We're thrilled to announce that SHWF will return to Empire Cinemas in July 2026, and we can't wait to welcome you back.
In the meantime, please take a moment to look in our Gallery at the terrific photos taken by our official photographer Greg Jackson, which capture the wonderful atmosphere.
Much love and thanks again,
Michaela Bolzan xo
