Author Sundowners at The Charleston

Round off the first day of the Festival in style with cocktails and canapés overlooking the Indian Ocean. Join the day’s guest speakers on the rooftop of Galle Fort’s newest boutique hotel, for conversations about life and literature in a glamorous art deco setting. A warm and relaxed way to ease into the long weekend as the sun sinks into the sea beyond the ramparts. You’re very welcome to reserve a table at Charlie’s Bar for dinner afterwards.
