The Ubud Writers & Readers Festival (UWRF) 2024 is set to take place in October 23 - 27, 2024 in the cultural heart of Bali, Ubud. The theme for this year, "Satyam Vada Dharmam Chara", meaning "Speak the Truth, Practice Kindness," draws inspiration from the Mahabharata and focuses on the values of truth and kindness. This resonates with the Balinese Hindu concept of "Tri Pramana"—the three human powers of living, speaking, and thinking.

The festival will feature engaging conversations, performances, workshops, literary dinners, and cultural tours. It also provides opportunities for emerging writers through various programs, including the Book Launch Program and Writers' Retreat
