Sheffield Poetry Festival - 1-3 april 2011

Plus Fringe Events 29 March - 6 April!

Poetry lives and breathes in Sheffield: that’s what the very first Sheffield Poetry Festival is designed to show. Five poetry organisations, along with local writing groups and many individuals, have collaborated to bring together as many different kinds of poetic event as we can think up. Together we’ve created an eclectic programme, something for every poetic taste, bringing some major names into the city, whilst promoting local poets alongside them.

The aim is to make the Sheffield Poetry Festival a regular event, every two years. We hope, then, that you will find plenty of events to come and enjoy – and that, with your support, we can establish the Festival as a welcome addition to the cultural life of the city.
