Celebrating the Art
of Storytelling

StoryFest is a celebration of storytelling in all its forms - oral, written, prose, poetry, song or film.  

StoryFest 2025 was held on 19-22 June 2025 in the Milton Ulladulla Mollymook area and included some big names! Stephanie Alexander, Gina Chick, Holly Wainwright, Candice Fox, Markus Zusak, Fiona McIntosh, Chris Hammer, Richard Glover and Inga Simpson, to name a few.

You can relive the best moments of past festivals by listening to our podcast. You’ll hear the most wonderful conversations on a vast array of topics from your favourite authors, songwriters, poets and filmmakers.

Festival Programs

Following the success of our inaugural festival in 2019 and the follow-up event in 2021, StoryFest was even bigger and bolder in 2023 and 2025.

We ran a full program of workshops, talks, performances and other storytelling experiences. New podcasts from past festivals are released each month.

The StoryFest schools program was also a huge success, bringing writers, illustrators and performers into schools across our local area.

PODCAST

If you missed any sessions or want to get a taste of previous festivals, most of them are available to listen to on the StoryFest Podcast.

Listen to sessions with Michael Robotham, Candice Fox, Natasha Lester, Craig Silvey, Rosalie Ham, Richard Fidler, Markus Zusak and many more wherever you get your podcasts.

Happy listening!
