Overview

Find yourself surrounded by some of the world's brightest journalists at this year's Storyology, returning to Sydney at the end of August. Brought to you by The Walkley Foundation, Australia's networking festival of media and storytelling returns with Australian and international journalists leading talks and lectures on today's big questions around the forever-changing industry.

What will newsrooms look like as new technologies arise and develop? How does one go about turning their stories into successful podcasts? How has the 'Trump Effect' impacted media outside of the US? Topics like these and many more will be discussed in conversations lead by Buzzfeed and Google executives, Pulitzer Prize-winning critics and journalists flying in from across the world. Explore great art writing at Art on the Page, learn about what's going on with the US media and master short storytelling, with all events held at Darlinghurst Theatre.

The festival first kicks off in Brisbane on Thursday, August 24 with Storyology After Dark for a 'night of great yarns', then makes its way to Sydney on Wednesday, August 30, where it finishes up with the Storyology Social on Thursday, August 31 — a celebration of all the issues, ideas and stories discussed throughout.

Storyology 2017 takes place in Sydney from Wednesday, August 30 to Thursday, August 31 at the Eternity Playhouse. See the full program of events and talks here. We also have a full festival pass for two to giveaway. Enter for your chance to win here.
