We are delighted to bring you Knocklyon Literary Festival. In this treat-filled week, there is something for everyone’s literary taste. We are offering learning and social events with a literary twist. Get together with fellow readers and writers, book clubs and writing groups, through open mic and afternoon tea readings, workshops, story-telling and creative expression.
2024 POETRY AND FICTION COMPETITION WINNERS ANNOUNCED
We are delighted with the tremendous response to the Festival Competition, and the judges have been very impressed with the overall quality. The shortlist and the winners were announced at the Open Mic Session on 4th October.
Congratulations to all winners and those shortlisted for the Knocklyon Literary Festival Writing Competition.
As this year is to celebrate Knocklyon, most of the authors and poets involved in this festival are from our wonderful array of local talent, but we invite everyone to join in our celebrations. To make sure that this community event is inclusive, we have kept the price of every event as low as possible and concessions are available. (Some events are free.)
Many of our workshops are linked, and families are encouraged to participate, therefore, we have a very attractively priced Single Festival Pass and Family Festival Pass availalble.
Knocklyon Literary Festival offers sponsored places to those who might otherwise not be able to afford participation. These places will be awarded to those who meet a low-income criteria. All correspondence will be strictly confidential. Please apply to info@knocklyonfestival.com
