WATCH THE 2022 FESTIVAL VIDEO:
Our 2022 Annual Literary Festival was held at the University Centre Grimsby on Wednesday 9th February 2022 and was kindly sponsored by Grimsby Creates.
The festival was a huge success, with writers from across the country coming together to celebrate their craft and meet likeminded people.
As well as our awards ceremony, the festival also had live music, stand-up comedy, poetry readings, a book fair, festival stands and the official launch of the 2022 International Literary Prize.
MEET THE AUTHORS:
Watch interviews with some of our award-winning authors who made the – often lengthy! – journey to attend our 2022 Literary Festival and Awards Ceremony in person.
And meet a range of award-winning authors from around the world who couldn't make the festival, but caught up with us over Zoom to tell us about their writing, their inspirations, and their hopes for the future.
