The Auckland Writers Festival | Waituhi o Tāmaki programme has been announced and, while the 2021 line-up is largely – and proudly – a huge celebration of New Zealand writing and writers, the Festival has secured over 20 internationals and a major theatre work direct from the UK.
The beloved annual festival, which is the largest literary event in Aotearoa and the largest presenter of New Zealand literature in the world, takes place 11 to 16 May this year. The 2021 Festival will present over 200 writers in six jam-packed days of discussion, conversation, reading, debate, performance, schools, family, and free events ranging from fiction, non-fiction, poetry, music, theatre, culture, art, and more.
The Festival brings the very best local and international writers of contemporary fiction and non-fiction, scientists, economists, poets, journalists and public intellectuals together with audiences to explore ideas, share stories and experience brilliant conversations. We celebrate curiosity and a sense of intellectual adventure and our programme is driven by the desire to spark ideas, to get us talking and to give us a time and place to engage with the world.
