Save the date and tell your friends - the Dunedin Writers & Readers Festival is back for 2027, and we can't wait!
Over the weekend of the 10th to 12th September immerse yourself in three days of books, words, big ideas and great conversations in the heart of Ōtepoti, Aotearoa's beautiful UNESCO City of Literature.
And while you're at it, come and work with us!
If you’ve ever wanted to work for the coolest little festival of words, this is your chance! We’re a small but mighty team and are currently recruiting for a Programme Director and Board members.
With multi-year support from Creative New Zealand, we’re excited to get stuck into planning next year's festival, as well as the years ahead.

Applications for both close 5pm, Friday 27th November. Applicants must be Ōtepoti-based.
