Byron Bay Writers Festival 2011
5th - 7th August, 2011
The Festival is held at North Beach (formerly known as Byron Bay Beach Resort) and is located at the end of Bayshore Drive in the Arts & Industrial Estate. It takes place over several days from the 5th to the 7th of August in Byron Bay and includes literary lunches, film screenings, theatre, book launches, interviews and panel discussions.
The festival occupies three days - plus extraneous workshops (commencing 2nd August), sessions and events over the preceding week - and feasts not only the brains but the senses of humour of all who attend. It's one of the favoured festivals of the region, because these are events not repeated, conversations unscripted and panels uniquely-composed.
Be sure to book early to make sure you get tickets to see your favourite authors and media personalities. Each year, 20000 plus people converge on Byron Bay to attend the festival. be sure to book your accommodation as soon as you decide to come! Look out around May for the festival program to be released.
