About

Vagabond Press is an independent literary press that was established in 1999. For almost three decades we have published a range of established and emerging poets from Australia and Asia-Pacific. Our books have won or shortlisted for the major literary prizes in Australia, been praised by critics and taught at universities around the world. Vagabond Press aims to continue to support the production and promotion of innovative new writing and literature.

Vagabond Press acknowledges the Gadigal, Wangal, Bidjigal, and Birrabirragal people of the Eora nation as the traditional custodians of the lands on which we work and live, and recognise their continuing connection to land, water and community. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.

Vagabond Press is grateful for generous funding received over recent years from the Creative Australia (formerly the Australia Council for the Arts), which has allowed us to continue publishing.
