2024 QWF Awards Gala

Step into a world of literary magic at the 2024 QWF Literary Awards Gala!

On Tuesday, November 12, Cabaret Lion d'Or (1676 Ontario St. East) will transform into a dazzling celebration of Quebec's finest wordsmiths as we reveal the winners of the 2024 QWF Literary Awards. The event will be hosted by Ali Hassan—comedian, author, and the host of CBC's beloved Canada Reads. Ali promises a night of both heartfelt celebrations and hearty laughs.

The theme of this year’s gala is “Reflecting on the Future.” Attendees are invited to get in the spirit of the theme by wearing futuristic attire or reflective materials. Come dressed in your silks, your satins, your metallics, or your shiniest jewelry and accessories. Feeling bold? Don an aluminum-foil hat. Gala volunteers will choose their favourite futuristic ensemble, and the lucky wearer will win a prize!

Join us for a cocktail reception with the finalists preceding the Gala from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. Tickets to the reception are $60 ($40 for full-time students) and include two glasses of wine, beer or non-alcoholic drink; catered hors d'oeuvres; and admission to the awards ceremony, which begins at 8:00 p.m.

Tickets for the ceremony alone are $25 ($10 for full-time students). Doors for the ceremony open at 7:30 p.m.

Reserve your ticket now and prepare for an unforgettable evening that bridges the present and the future of English literary arts in Quebec.
