Programme

A full programme for the Galle Literary Festival 2009 will be published here before tickets go on sale in early December.

But for now we are promising you a rush of new events. We hope in 2009 to include more workshops for writers by writers, to set off a chain reaction between poets and to throw cooks and books together and see what happens. Were plotting ecological tours as well as architectural ones and a Fantasy Writers Festival featuring our authors own wishlist of guests.
