Our current and upcoming retreats

---

Go and Write! retreats are designed for writers, by writers. Our participants range from those who are just getting started, to published, professional authors with years of experience. We support all types of writers, including poets, memoirists, travel writers, romance writers, playwrights, fiction and non-fiction writers, children’s writers, and those who want to jot down thoughts about their journey along the way.

Because we’re writers, we get it—writers need time and space to write, and we structure our retreats to have a balance of quiet writing time, touring, and time spent together. We don’t pair up strangers on retreats, but participants are welcome to bring a partner, relative, or another writing friend to share their space and costs, and these folk are encouraged to participate in as many or as few of the elements of the retreat as they like.

See below for our upcoming retreats, and contact us if you’d like to discuss details. You can also check out our previous adventures to see where we’ve hosted past retreats.

Sign up for our newsletter to be in the know early! 

We only have a handful of spaces remaining in our 2026 retreat schedule, and they’re filling quickly. Reach out if you’d like to discuss!

You can also follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and Blue Sky. We’re also on Canada’s new social media platform, Gander Social—just search for us using  @goandwrite.gander.social.
