​​​​

Poems and tales from the city, from green spaces, from home. From Midsummer, Midwinter and Lammas. From the future, the past and more. Join Lit Fest upstairs at Cosy Club for a session of readings that celebrate the depth, breadth and quality of local writing.

 

MK Lit Fest has been laying foundations – both on- and offline - to support and encourage the growth and development of creative writing across our region:  by finding and sharing stories by new, developing and established writers, through competitions, anthologies, workshops and performances, through galas, an indie book fair and literary walks. For this penultimate festival event, you’ll hear some of the most inspiring, intriguing and insightful pieces chosen from the last eight years of festival writing.

 

Gather from 5pm as the Lit Fest moves from the Library to Waterstones. Readings start at 5.15pm. Waterstones Cafe will be open for hot drinks and light snacks.
