Queensland Premier's Literary Awards






The Queensland Premier's Literary Awards was an Australian literary award inaugurated in 1999 and disestablished in 2012. It was a leading literary award within Australia, with $225,000 in prize money over 14 categories making it one of Australia's richest prizes, top categories offered up to $25,000 for 1st prize.


The awards were established by Peter Beattie, the then Premier of Queensland in 1999[1] and abolished by Premier Campbell Newman, shortly after winning the 2012 Queensland state election.[2]


In response, the Queensland writing community established the Queensland Literary Awards to ensure the Awards continue.[3] The judging panel remained the same, and University of Queensland Press agreed to continue to publish the winners of the Emerging Queensland Author Manuscript Award and the Unpublished Indigenous Writer, David Unaipon Award.[4]
