So you're thinking about coming to Writers at Woody Point for the first time...or maybe the 21st time.

Here are a few things you should know.

As anyone who has attended Writers at Woody Point knows, our hosts are the festival's heart and soul. They’re the ones who set the tone for the audience and for the authors and musicians on stage.Ask anyone in our audience what’s unique about those nights and days at the Heritage Theatre and they’ll talk about the feeling the room, the goodwill, the sense that we are all so happy to be there, together.

We have an incredible celebration planned for you this August and we're excited to let you know that we'll be releasing our full event schedule on Monday, April 15!

Announcing Sara Power, Ouroboros, and RASA for Writers at Woody Point this summer.

We love authors who enjoy being on stage. One of the founding principles of our festival was that if we were going to ask people to come indoors in the middle of a perfect Bonne Bay summer, we’d make sure we entertained them.

Next up in our announcements for this year's festival line-up are Waub Rice, Donna Morrissey, and Looking Glass Ensemble!

So this year, we found ourselves looking for a guest interviewer.

Who was out there who would be comfortable behind a microphone, asking questions of one of our authors? And was there any chance that the interviewer could also be an interviewee, someone with their own interesting story to tell? But who might interview them?

You won’t want to miss Louise Penny and Kate Beaton, along with musical guests The Dardanelles.

We can't keep the secret any longer! We're so excited to begin announcing our festival line-up, starting with our opening concerts.

This year's Writers at Woody Point festival is happening from August 20-25 and we'll kick it all off with an incredible show featuring Jeremy Dutcher and special guests Charm of Finches.

Our warmest congratulations to Holly Hogan on winning the 2023 BMO Winterset Award for her book Message in a Bottle: Ocean Dispatches from a Seabird Biologist.

You better watch out, as Writers is on a mission to share Christmas cheer at Woody Point with two amazing shows, Christmas at the Point & The Tapes Eve!

We are very sad to learn of the passing of Clyde Rose, a monumental figure in Newfoundland and Labrador culture as well as a friend, a neighbour and one of the original hosts of Writers at Woody Point.

It’s been a fantastic summer here in Woody Point, but that’s not all... We’re excited to announce that the show goes on in October with Sonic Harvest Sessions! Stay tuned as we’ll announce the full lineup soon... 🎶🍂🍁
