Ubud Writers and Readers Festival

The Ubud Writers and Readers Festival (UWRF) is an annual literary and cultural event held in Ubud, Bali, Indonesia. It was first established in 2004 by Janet DeNeefe, a writer, and founder of the Ubud Food Festival, with the aim of celebrating literature, promoting dialogue, and fostering creativity.

The festival brings together writers, poets, journalists, artists, thinkers, and readers from around the world to engage in discussions, panels, workshops, book launches, and performances. It offers a platform for both established and emerging voices to share their ideas, stories, and perspectives on a wide range of topics, including literature, politics, history, environment, and social issues.

UWRF features a diverse program of events, including author talks, panel discussions, writing workshops, poetry readings, book signings, film screenings, and cultural performances. The festival often explores themes relevant to the region, such as Southeast Asian literature, Indonesian history and culture, as well as global issues and trends.

Over the years, the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival has grown into one of the most significant literary events in Asia, attracting renowned authors, intellectuals, and cultural figures from across Indonesia and around the world. It has become a hub for literary enthusiasts, providing opportunities for meaningful exchange and dialogue in a vibrant and inspiring setting.

Beyond its literary offerings, UWRF also contributes to the cultural and economic development of Ubud and Bali, drawing visitors and fostering connections between local communities and the international literary scene. Overall, the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival serves as a celebration of creativity, diversity, and the power of storytelling to connect people across cultures and borders.
