What Makes It Special
What I really like about this festival is that it’s not just about buying books. It’s an experience. You can sit in on author sessions, enjoy cultural performances, let kids explore fun activities, and even grab some good food - all in one place.
Plus, the free entry makes it even more exciting for students and families. It's best to visit during the evenings. Don't forget to buy your favourite book.
