Cork World Book Festival

Cork World Book Fest has always sought to combine readings by world class writers in a variety of settings with a cultural streetfair: book stalls, music, street entertainment, the spoken word, and more. The Fest compliments other literary events in the city and region, but is quite different – putting readings and books on the street, for example.  It is a participative, inclusive event, connecting readers with established and emerging Irish and international authors.  Participation is also encouraged through the numerous workshops that are held during the week.
