LITERARY EVENTS


This year there's a story for everyone – from picture books to powerful prose

Arundel Festival’s literary programme offers something for every age and reading level — from tiny bookworms

to seasoned bibliophiles.


For Young Readers

This year we’re championing young imaginations with a week of storytelling events and workshops in partnership with

Dates to be confirmed, Words • Music • Wine returns — a laid-back literary lounge of readings, music, and conversations

with writers and performers who know how to entertain a room. Come for the wit, stay for the wisdom (and maybe the wine).


And for those seeking deeper discussion, head over to our “Fascinating Speakers” section on the website — where you’ll find thought-provoking talks that inform, inspire, and occasionally challenge your perspective.
