Perth’s premier literary festival celebrating all things fiction!
The inaugural 2024 Festival of Fiction at Edith Cowan University in Perth brought together 350 readers with their favourite Australian authors who they got to listen to in conversation on stage and then meet in person afterwards.
We had author book signing sessions, Dymocks had a pop up shop, there was lots of great merch to buy, and aspiring authors had a chance to pitch their manuscripts to some of Australia’s leading publishers who came to Perth for the event.
The festival sold out in a single day when tickets went on sale and the day itself was a smash hit success!

We’re going FOUR times as big in 2025 over one huge weekend on October 18th and 19th back at ECU Joondalup.
We’re confident that once we announce our unbelievable lineup of literary superstars that we’ve booked for 2025, tickets will sell out in record time again. So make sure you don’t miss out by joining our mailing list and staying up to date with all announcements.
