Bangalow Showgrounds is a picturesque heritage site nestled in the heart of Bangalow, a charming village just a stone’s throw from Byron Bay and home to a vibrant and creative community. The festival will also be making use of several indoor venues within the precinct, including the Moller Pavilion and the iconic Bangalow A&I Hall. We are very much looking forward to bringing the site to life and creating a playground of literary delights for audiences, so stay tuned as we share more details over the coming months.
We can’t wait to bring authors and audiences together again at our new site on Bundjalung land in Bangalow this August for what will surely be a truly special event.
