Mountain Writers Festival - Mt Macedon

The festival’s focus on place, story and nature not just as a theme, but as the festival’s entire purpose now and into the future, is unique in Australia. It will include author panels and in-conversation events showcasing novels with regional settings, environmental science writing, Indigenous storytelling, nature writing, cli-fi and an exciting kids program created by renowned children’s author, Sally Rippin.

We are thrilled to have both John Marsden and Sally Rippin on board as our festival ambassadors.
