#About the event
Duration: 180 minutes
A very special event in the stunning QAGOMA Water Mall, the Marion Taylor Gala is an evening of fine dining, sparkling atmosphere and thought-provoking speech. This year, the wonderful Louise Doughty talks about books and television dramas and how storytelling at its best not only grips us, but unites us all in solidarity and compassion.
This event is made possible through the support of the Taylor family
We’re delighted to announce that Louise is appearing exclusively at BWF in 2024 – you won’t catch her at any other Australian festival. Check the program index for her full schedule of BWF appearances and don’t miss your chance to see this international literary sensation!
