ABOUT US

Kampot Writers’ & Readers’ Festival is an initiative to promote literacy and champion new ideas celebrating Cambodia’s vibrant arts & culture scene.

This year’s festival explores a one-word theme of “harmony”.

KWRF 2019 official programme will be announced Monday Sept 30. Watch this space or check out website for program announcements, special guests and events.

The Kampot Writers & Readers Festival is the largest celebration of words, art & song on the lower Mekong. As a diverse team of volunteers we strive to create community arts festival in provincial Cambodia, bringing lively conversation, poetry readings, music concerts, cooking classes, gourmet lunches, social development, art shows, book launches, book swaps, countryside tours, workshops, youth literature and children’s events.

KWRF launched in 2015 as a ‘little sister’ festival inspired and supported by Ubud Writers & Readers Festival.
