Singapore Writers Festival 2022 Introduction

The Singapore Writers Festival, one of Asia's premier literary events, started in 1986 as a biennial festival. Now organised by Arts House Limited, SWF is a much anticipated event on the cultural calendar, presenting the world's major literary talents to Singaporeans while shining a spotlight on home grown and Southeast Asian creative talents.

If now, if ever,

If you, if I,

If not, if never…

Turn back time, ponder the present and imagine the endless possibilities that the future holds at the Singapore Writers Festival (SWF) 2022. The region’s premier multi-lingual literary arts festival celebrates its 25th edition this year from 4 to 20 November. SWF 2022 invites you to reflect on its legacy and imagine exciting new futures with the provocation of our Festival theme, 'IF'.

Join us at more than 200 programmes over three Festival weekends. From Festival favourites to unexpected new offerings, there is something for everyone of all ages in this year’s exciting line-up that spans immersive experiences, exhibitions, performances, film screenings, meet-the-author sessions and conversations.

Gain access to more than 80% of programmes at SWF 2022 with the purchase of our Festival Pass or SWF Youth Pass.
