Festival Friends Program

Friend Card

If you’ve ever thought about becoming a Festival Friend, 2009 is the year!

This year, more than ever, the Festival needs your support. The global financial situation, combined with political uncertainly in Indonesia, has seen our corporate support greatly reduced. While we still have a number of wonderful and committed corporate sponsors, who are supporting us even through these difficult times [see 'sponsors' page], we need YOU as well.

The Festival Friends program has always been popular, but this year we are offering increased benefits. Aside from the warm glow, discounted tickets, recognition in our program, a T-shirt and regular news updates from us, the Friends preferential booking period ensures you don’t miss out on any of our glittering special events or popular workshop series.

Even more attractive is the opportunity to purchase a ticket to our unpublicised, exclusive writers dinners where you can meet and talk to writers in a small, intimate setting. In 2009, tickets to these events will ONLY be available to our Festival Friends.

And to say thank you, the Festival will host an afternoon tea event for Friends only.
