What People Said About The 2023 Festival
The 2023 Sorrento Writers Festival was a resounding success. In our first year, the Sorrento Writers Festival established itself as one of Victoria’s most exciting literary events. Feedback from presenters and the public was incredible.
There was so much to love about the Sorrento Writers Festival, but here’s what matters: I spoke with several audience members who’d never been to a writer’s festival before. And they loved it. They each left the session excited by books, and ideas, and stories. For me, introducing the most democratic of art forms to regional Victorians was the best part of the weekend.

Hi Corrie, I wish to thank you and your army of volunteers who stood by the festival and believed its success would catapult it for an annual event marked on the calendar. Thank you bringing communities, visitors and writing enthusiasts together - believers of the art.

What a fabulous, inspiring, thought provoking festival you hosted.
It was such a lovely environment to immerse oneself in - everyone was friendly, inclusive and genuinely thrilled to be there.
I was particularly delighted with the way the Voice was received. Thomas Mayo is a star.
As is Corrie. Actually she is an entire galaxy.
