Exeter Literary Festival promotes appreciation of words in all their forms, and of writing and literature within Exeter and the surrounding area, through professionally organised and widely accessible literary events.

Due to the current pandemic and associated restrictions, we have suspended preparation for a physical festival for the time being. You can read all updates on the situation on our blog page.  However, we are still running our short story competition. Look out for the short list in mid-September; the winners will be announced in October.

Please visit our contact page to get in touch or join our mailing list.

More content will be loaded on the website as it becomes available.
