SWINDON FESTIVAL OF LITERATURE 2025
The next Swindon Festival of Literature will take place from 5th to 11th May 2025.
It will present a wide range of Literature-linked events, in Swindon.
These are likely to include LitFest standing dishes such as the ever-popular Dawn Chorus (5th May) and fabulous Festival Finale (11th May); a series of fascinating Author Talks and Presentations at the Arts Centre, at the town’s bookshops, libraries, and Lower Shaw Farm.
There may also be Writing Workshops, poetry in a park, pub, or cowshed, a third Flash Fiction Slam, storytelling walks and evenings, a film night, and a Children & Families Activities Day (11th May).
If you have any author requests, performance suggestions, or brilliant literature-linked ideas, now is the time, in late ’24 or early ’25, to give us a shout, or even a whisper, on 01793 771080 or email swindonlitfest@lowershawfarm.co.uk
Thanks and winter greetings.
