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.

Details of all events will be  in our 2023 Programme Brochure, due to be published in March and are now live on the Programme Page. 

Thank you for your interest and continued support.
