We’re not done yet!

Keep your eyes peeled for our Autumn programme, coming soon!

Bring your tall tales, your long reads, the lyrics of that song that plays on repeat in your head and that book you just can’t put down… Burnley Words Festival covers it all.

Here you will find all our latest opportunities for local writers, readers and word smiths, alongside news about our current projects, and of course all our upcoming events.

Following on from the success of our Wordy Weekend back in May, we are busy planning an autumn full of wordy goodness, in the mean time be sure to keep an eye on our news page for the latest call outs, and our Instagram account for all things wordy in Burnley.
