Oundle Festival of Literature has a rich history, going back to 2002, when we were first formed by a committee of literature loving locals. Since then we have hosted an amazing array of speakers from the worlds of fiction, non-fiction, poetry and academia. As a not-for-profit organisation we are proud to support early career and local authors, alongside the bigger names, as well as encouraging local children in their love of books and story through our annual KidLit Festival in March.

Take a look at some of our guests over the years...
