Submit Your Works
and Programme Ideas

Invitations to the 2026 Festival are issued at the discretion of the Festival’s Founder and the Programming Team. However, if you are a writer who wishes to speak at the Festival or put forward ideas for the programme, feel free to send your submission through our online form.

Submission Form:

Note: Each year, we receive many unsolicited submissions from writers wishing to speak at the Festival or people putting forward an idea for the programme. We welcome these suggestions, but due to the large volume received, we are not able to respond to every submission or return materials that are sent for consideration.
