We’re thrilled to be able to announce our 2019 selections, and look forward to presenting them at #NZWF19. We had a record-breaking number of submissions this year, and massive range of award-winning and very high-quality shows to choose from. Congratulations to all the shows which made the final cut, and commiserations to those which didn’t. We expanded the size of the programme this year, and still couldn’t fit in every show we wanted to.
We have a small number of selections still to announce. These are direct selections from partner festivals which haven’t yet announced their line-ups. We expect to announce all of these by the time we announce our award nominees in early October.
Keep an eye on our social media channels for all further selection, nominee and ticket announcements and info.
