Singapore Writers Festival: Guilty Pleasures

Something’s brewing: The 24th edition of the Singapore Writers Festival (SWF) is back from 5 – 14 November 2021 and we are too excited not to reveal a few electrifying festival speakers as a taster of what is to come. Presented by Arts House Limited (AHL) and commissioned by the National Arts Council (NAC), this year’s hybrid festival (with some programmes held in-person and online) will bring together local and international authors to share candid thoughts and juicy opinions, creating safe spaces for the public to indulge in their literary pleasures.

It’s time to crack open that romance novel under your pillow because this year’s theme is all about exploring the things we love but are too shy to admit. SWF 2021 invites authors and audiences to delve into the complicated relationships between guilt and pleasure and discover others out there who share the same literary loves. This year’s festival will have something for everyone and festival goers should get ready for provocative stories from international and local authors, film writers, and musicians and bond over the guilty pleasures that bring us together.

When: 5 - 14 Nov 2021,

By: The Arts House at the Old Parliament
