Save the date! Western Port Writes
Western Port Writes
Western Port Writes (WPW) is a biennial literary festival based in the Western Port region of the Mornington Peninsula, held in Somers and surrounds. Designed to celebrate creativity and the art of the story, it showcases established and emerging writers connected to our region and beyond. Our hugely enjoyable and successful inaugural festival was held in 2024. We are delighted to announce that our 2026 Festival Program will be launched on Monday 10 August and tickets will go on sale. The program is chock full of brilliant writers, commentators and presenters, with something for readers and writers. The festival begins with a special Opening Night event on Friday 9 October and continues over the weekend of 10-11 October. We’d love to see you there.
