The 20th Literary Festival is on 17-19thFebruary in the historic Carrington Hotel at Katoomba. The theme Tales and Trails will cover literary works across diverse genres (novels, poetry, song, movies and drama) that give you a vivid sense of intriguing cultures, amazing environments, and even a migrant’s tale. The tales might even inspire you to travel to a particular region or maybe place it on your bucket list - essentially a passport through storytelling. Three days of fun with fabulous presentations, delightful breakfasts, lunches, morning and afternoon teas and gourmet dinners (including wine), a movie night and time to just relax and enjoy Katoomba.
