With twenty five events, poetry will fill the weekend. As well as listening to readings, learning more about writing poetry at workshops and listening to poets talking about their craft, you can meet the poets and, above all, ask questions of them.
Visitors to the Festival enjoy the convivial atmosphere of the Livermead Cliff Hotel, which is situated on the water’s edge. This is a long weekend which celebrates all things poetic in the heart of beautiful Torbay: sea, palm trees, light … and inspiration!
For ease of administration, single appropriate prices will be charged for each event. Tea / Coffee and the famous shortbreads are included in the price of certain events.
The Festival’s aim of a packed schedule of events, mainly concentrated at the comfortable Livermead Cliff Hotel, has established an inspiring literary weekend by the sea with the added advantage of the beautiful English Riviera as a backdrop.
This year there will be a focus on the Cornish poet, Charles Causley, with 2017 celebrating the 100th anniversary of his birth.
We will also celebrate the Brontë family with an event which looks at how the sisters and their brother Branwell were influenced by their clergyman father, Patrick Brontë.
