New Writing North: Newcastle Writing Conference 2025 tickets now on sale
Sun 18 May 2025 to Sun 18 May 2025
Join us for a day of insight, advice and creativity for writers of all kinds, on Saturday 18 May at The Common Room. Through author panels, workshops, industry one-to-ones, and more, you’ll develop your craft, learn about the world of publishing, and connect with fellow writers. Plus, there’s a Virtual Pass available if you can’t be there in person.

The writing conference is an event for writers at all stages of their careers. It aims to demystify the world of publishing and supports you to connect with peers and industry experts.

Across one day, the conference offers a programme of panels, breakout sessions and practical workshops. Writers choose their own bespoke journey throughout the day, whether you’re interested in avoiding memoir mistakes, creating compelling characters in your children’s novel or getting a guide to independent publishing.

Making connections is just as important as a fantastic programme of events. We encourage attendees to mingle over complimentary tea and coffee, visit our pop-up book stall from Forum Books, and meet other writers during the networking time at the end of the day. You can also apply for an industry one-to-one with a range of agents, editors and professional writers.

If you can’t join us in person, we’ll be live-streaming our three main events and three breakout sessions throughout the day.
