Melbourne Web Fest is one of only two international web festivals in Australia, and is the fourth festival of its kind in the world. MWF has a proud history of celebrating digital content, and 2025 is shaping up to be another show-stopping year.
Melbourne Web Fest features web series, podcasts, and actual play (audio & video) projects. MWF is also a proud participant in the Audio Fiction World Cup.
In addition to the annual official selection, Melbourne Web Fest also promotes projects with more modest budgets, with its Spotlight program (Australian and international projects produced for less than $50,000 USD).
