Welcome to
Evesham Festival of Words
A celebration of words in all their forms, written, spoken or sung. The events we put on include: author talks; plays; concerts; poetry open mic; quiz night, and writing workshops. In addition we run an annual Short Story Competition, as well as competitions which might include: haiku, poetry, photo captions, six word stories – and an annual Christmas Quiz.
We have compiled a truly amazing programme of events for 2023, and we really hope that fans of the Festival will come along to support us, both during the main Festival Weekend (30th June – 2nd July 2023) and also throughout the year.
Our first event is Saturday 11th March, when Rhianna Levi, the current Worcestershire Poet Laureate (and youngest ever), will be running a workshop on zoom. The title is ‘Poetry within our Architecture’ and is sure to be completely inspiring.
