First Festival Line-up Announcement

A novelist who writes from the perspective of those overlooked by history; a legal academic, author and Aboriginal rights activist who harnesses the power of stories to bridge past and present; a critic, essayist and novelist whose work illuminates the beauty and loss of the present moment.

We are thrilled that Hannah Kent, Larissa Behrendt, and Delia Falconer are among the talented writers appearing at this year’s NT Writers Festival.

Join these authors and a line-up of brilliant thinkers and storytellers at the Museum and Art Gallery of the NT for four days of inspiring talks and immersive experiences celebrating language, culture and community shaped by place.

The full program goes on sale on Fri 13 May, but Early Bird ‘All Talk’ Passes are on sale soon. Keep an eye out here or on our socials for all the latest news and announcements.
