Grant Description
The Writers’ Festival Author Travel Fund 2026–27 supports Australian writers’ festivals to strengthen Australia’s literary ecosystem by enabling Australian authors to connect with readers and peers through festival participation across regional areas and capital cities. Funding of $5,000 to $30,000 is available to assist festivals to cover author-related travel and participation costs, with priority given to First Nations authors, children’s authors and illustrators, early to mid-career writers, and authors travelling to or from regional locations.
