About Aireys Festival of Words
Friday 14 – Sunday 16 August 2009
The beautiful coastal town of Aireys Inlet is set to be taken over by art and ideas as part of the annual Aireys Festival of Words.
Now in its third year, the Festival has once again attracted internationally acclaimed writers and will showcase the talents of local authors, illustrators, musicians and artists in a weekend-long celebration of words, sounds and images.
We hope you can join us.
