THE KĀPITI WRITERS’ RETREAT
Due to the omicron outbreak, we made the hard decision to cancel the 2022 Kāpiti Writers’ Retreat. The main motivation when considering and ultimately making this is the safety of people at the retreat and everyone traveling to and from Kāpiti.

We look forward to seeing everyone in February 2023 for our three-day gathering for writers which encompasses intensive morning workshops, lively discussions and space to write, relax and engage with topics critical to your work.
The Kāpiti Coast is the perfect place to ground yourself and your writing by the saltiness of the sea to the west, and the bird song from the canopy of native bush that cover its mountains to the east.
All writers are welcome, at whatever stage you are in your writing life. You’ll find community, encouragement and a safe place in which to take artistic risks.
Scholarship and volunteer opportunities are available.



Brilliant retreat for writers with wonderful workshops, and the sharing with other writers has transformed my writing life. I will be there again next year as soon as it open to register.
