Sydney Writers’ Festival Patron Program

Donations of $2,000 or more

Sydney Writers' Festival is a not-for-profit organisation, 25% funded by state and local government, 40% ticket sales and 35% through private giving and philanthropy. 

Our Patrons support Sydney Writers’ Festival with gifts of $2,000 or more. They play a vital role in the life of our organisation. It is only with their generous support that we can showcase the highest calibre of writers and deliver a world-renowned program of talks and panels. 

Our Patrons are passionate supporters of discussion, debate and the exchange of ideas and have a lifelong love of reading. 

We hope you will join our Patron Program. In recognition of your generosity, you will access a suite of exclusive benefits. These benefits include early access to the Festival program, a priority ticket booking window, invitations to exclusive Patron-only events throughout the year as well as access to our fully-catered Patron Lounge at Carriageworks during the Festival, and more.
