Support the Festival

Give yourself or a friend membership to New Zealand's largest international festival of literature and ideas.

 

Friend Membership is only $65 and puts you in the front row for the Festival:

  • Be the first to know about authors appearing
  • Take advantage of earlybird booking and a dedicated booking line (a real plus since many events sold out in 2009)
  • We’ll save the best seats at every event for our Friends

 

Club Membership is $225 for an individual and $350 for couples and includes:

  • All Friend benefits
  • A 20% discount on tickets
  • Membership of the private festival Club Room with complimentary wine, coffee, magazines and newspapers

 

Give either membership as a gift to a friend and we will send them a gift card with a message from you. To download the membership form, click here. All prices include GST.
