“I get paid to daydream, to sit at my computer and write down stories. I can’t wait to read your stories, too.”
The Festival of Young Writers 2026
Braidwood Lions Club members are delighted to announce that the Young Writers Festival will be held again during 2026.
First held in 2018 this biennial Festival is a significant event on our community and school calendar.
All school aged children living within the 2622 postcode are eligible to become involved.
This is a great opportunity for students to interact with renowned authors and maybe to get their entry included in the book we will publish at the end of the Festival.
There are also good cash prizes on offer.
More background in ABOUT and Entry forms can be found under ENTRIES
Entries will close in last week of June and the Award ceremony will be held in the National Theatre in late November 2026.
