Festival Lineup Announced

Saul WilliamsAfter months of hard work the Festival Team is proud (and pretty excited!) to announce this year's lineup. From the godfather of hip-hop poetry Saul Williams (right) to cult indie musician and writer Edward Larrikin and spoken word duo dan le sac Vs Scroobius Pip; from novelists Joshua Ferris and Joe Dunthorne to comedians Josie Long and Richard Herring. We hope there's something wordy for everyone!

Over the next month we will be announcing more events as we confirm them. So keep checking back and don't forget to sign up to our e-list. All events are now on sale for those of you who like to plan ahead.
