Set against the sweeping coastline of Western Australia’s Coral Coast, the Big Sky Readers and Writers Festival transforms Geraldton into a vibrant hub of storytelling, creativity and culture each October. Visitors can experience inspiring author talks, engaging panel discussions and interactive workshops while exploring Geraldton’s cafés, foreshore precinct and historic streets. With spring sunshine, ocean views and a welcoming regional atmosphere, the festival offers the perfect excuse for a cultural getaway. Pair a weekend of books and ideas with coastal walks, fresh Mid West seafood and day trips to nearby natural attractions — making Big Sky not just a literary event, but a memorable regional escape under WA’s wide open skies.
Grab your friends and family and head to the beautiful shores of Murat Bay on Saturday & Sunday, 3–4 October 2026 for the Ceduna Oysterfest — the must-visit free festival on South Australia’s Far West Coast! Gorge on the freshest oysters and seafood, soak up the live music and entertainment, join in fun activities for all ages, and enjoy food, drink and local culture in a stunning seaside setting. Whether you’re a foodie, music lover or adventure seeker, Oysterfest is the perfect way to welcome spring with sun, sea and seaside vibes. See you on the foreshore!
