OUNDLE FESTIVAL OF LITERATURE


CELEBRATING LITERARY ARTS SINCE 2002

​

​

​

Established in 2002 as a springtime event, the Oundle Festival of Literature has evolved into an all year-round celebration of literature. 

​

We bring our community of authors, readers, and literary enthusiasts together to engage in monthly events such as author talks, book signings, discussions and writing workshops.

​

The Festival prides itself on featuring an eclectic mix of speaker events, including authors of contemporary and genre-based fiction, as well as environmental, political, historical and local interest topics.


We also have a fantastic week of children’s events in March, KidLit Festival, which highlights some of our country’s top children’s authors. Supported by local schools, the week also includes a children’s writing competition, which provides a creative outlet for our authors and poets of the future.

​

Festival events take place in a variety of venues around our characterful market town. We aim to promote Oundle as a cultural centre for this area and encourage people to visit and enjoy our beautiful town and surrounding countryside.

 

We look forward to welcoming you to our events!
