Now under the artistic direction of Hal Wake, the Writers Festival attracts the world's best writers to Vancouver. Internationally renowned and undiscovered authors mingle with 12,000 readers of all ages in intimate, interactive and informal settings on Granville Island, an urban oasis in the heart of Vancouver. In its 20 year history the Festival has presented luminaries such as Martin Amis, Margaret Atwood, Maeve Binchy, Peter Carey, Roddy Doyle, Timothy Findley, Tomson Highway, John Irving, P.D. James, Thomas Keneally, Rohinton Mistry, Frank McCourt, Alice Munro, Michael Ondaatje, Anita Rau Badami, JK Rowling, Salman Rushdie and Carol Shields. The Writers Festival also produces special events throughout the year featuring the best of Canadian and international writers. You may browse the festival archives to sample from some of our past offerings.

Spreading the Word, the Festival's Schools Program is the largest children's literary event in Canada. Each year we present great children's writers to over 6,000 BC children and young people, in English and in French. Corporate and private support helps us offer outreach programs to schools and subsidized tickets to children, youth and adult learners who would otherwise be unable to attend. We also offer discounted tickets to seniors and students.

The Vancouver International Writers Festival is a registered non-profit charitable organization and relies on a combination of public sector funding, ticket sales, advertising revenue, corporate sponsorships and donations.
