Irvine Welsh EVENT CANCELLED

The DWRF team regret to announce that, due to personal circumstances, Irvine Welsh is no longer able to attend our event on September 2. We're hugely disappointed (as is Irvine) and we hope to find another opportunity in the future to bring him to Dunedin. We wish him all the best. 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who bought tickets to this event as well as all those who helped in its organisation and promotion. 
UBS customers who bought tickets in-store can bring back their ticket for a full refund. For internet sales, refunds will be processed automatically.

Our thanks to our major funders
