WordFest is back in Gainsborough!
In its third year now, this exciting literary festival promises delights for all ages and interests.
Over a dozen events are taking place on one day. Save the Date : Saturday 13th September in Gainsborough town centre.
2025’s festival brings a bonanza of bookish treats and a smorgasbord of storytelling. There will be our marvellous literature market – get inspiration from published writers to pick up pen or pencil; history walks and talks – discover the Tale of Two Thomases; an acclaimed crime author spilling the beans on her twisted tales; a double-bill of theatrical performances at the Old Nick Theatre; talented young writers reading their work at the Old Hall; tower tours at All Saints Church (and the bells may peal!); dungeons and dragons, street theatre, fun and cartoons with Erin on the doodleboard, Wizardy Wizzine fun with Ally Pally Arts and blasting off to Planet Fun at the Library.
And it’s all FREE!
