ABOUT
ABOUT
The Football Writers Festival is more than football, and more than writing and reading. It helps put our 'game of opinions' into action in a fun, relaxed, and stimulating environment with other people who know and love football as much as we do.
​
Our Festival brings together a melting pot of readers, authors, writers, and interested voices in a single location that encourages and inspires meaningful and respectful debate and discussion.
​
We invite you to join us in 2024 for two days of football discussion and debate, with interesting panels and activities for all to enjoy. Whether you're a football historian, a writer, player, historian, or a fan who loves to talk about the game, you'll find something for you at the Football Writers' Festival.
​
The Football Writers' Festival is an initiative of Fair Play Publishing with the support of the Johnny Warren Football Foundation.

We invite you to be part of the important conversations in football and help us bring writers and thinkers from around Australia and the world, to explore the big ideas in our game. Our annual program includes one-on-one conversations, panel discussions, Q&A sessions on books published in the previous 12+ months, and social events.
