Escape is Tauranga’s much-anticipated bi-ennial readers' and writers’ festival, affectionately dubbed "the little festival with big ideas". Our boutique festival celebrates ideas, thinkers, writers and storytelling with a packed programme of literary talks, panel discussions, workshops, and live performance across three days.

Below are the shows that Baycourt is playing host to along with those that are just down the hill at the Cargo Shed. 

If you'd like to check out all the Escape Festival events please have a look at the full programme.

Get your Sunday off to a great start with an informative, fast-paced session that unpicks and reflects on the Sunday morning headlines. Renowned musician, journalist and documentary maker Moana Maniapoto (Ngāti Tūwharetoa, Tūhourangi, Ngāti Pikiao), Jared Savage (New Zealand Herald reporter, author of Gangland and Gangster’s Paradise), and Tony Wall (Stuff’s Investigative Reporter and former National Correspondent) will discuss the latest scoops, features and feel-good stories leading the morning news.

They will cast an informed and critical eye over what is stirring up our nation and reflect back in real time. This format is hugely popular in festivals around the world; don’t miss the deadline to book for this compelling session.
