March 2025
The Monty Lit Fest 2025 will take place from June 6-8, bringing together a wide range of literary talent in the picturesque town of Montgomery and this year’s festival is something for everyone. With events ranging from crime fiction and poetry to music and palaeontology.
Along with talks and readings, attendees can enjoy a poetry-themed art exhibition, street food vans, and live performances from buskers and musical groups. The festival will also feature two bookshops, Booka Books and The Montgomery Bookshop, where visitors can browse and meet authors for book signings. How exciting right?
Monty Lit Fest focuses on Welsh writers, who are passionate about Wales, the Welsh Borders, and the subjects that matter locally. The festival’s diverse programme aims to engage a broad audience, showcasing the richness of Welsh and borderland writing.
The main events will be held at Montgomery Town Hall, with other local venues contributing to the festival’s lively atmosphere. The festival is organised by the Montgomeryshire Literary Festival Trust, with a dedicated team of volunteers ensuring everything runs smoothly.
