Donate to BWF

Brisbane Writers Festival (BWF) is a non-profit organisation delivering one of Australia's largest annual celebrations of writing and ideas. Every year we present over 150 leading writers from around the world to celebrate the power and wonder of words and explore ideas that matter. We're a festival for thinkers, creators and dreamers. Whether you're curious about the global changes affecting you or looking for your next favourite book, we provide vital space for nuanced conversation and deeper understanding.

Government support and ticket sales cover approximately 60% of the costs associated with running the Festival each year. We need your support now more than ever to secure the future of the Festival and prioritise literacy and creativity for the next generation. 

Your donation can help us to:

• Provide Auslan interpreters for Festival sessions
• Support professional development workshops for teachers and teacher librarians
• Bring a regional Australian artist to the Festival
• Support a regional school to attend Word Play
• Bring an international artist to the Festival
• Bring a headline speaker to the Festival
