THE BATH FESTIVAL OF CHILDREN'S LITERATURE
21st-30th September 2007
One of the biggest new literary festivals announced in recent years will take place in Bath this autumn.
The Bath Festival of Children's Literature is a 10-day celebration of children's books and reading, and will feature some of the biggest and most creative names from the world of children's publishing.
It will be one of the largest literary festivals in the UK and a major tourist attraction for the World Heritage City of Bath.
Many very well known and popular authors and illustrators make up the impressive launch line-up.
The festival will be for children aged up to 16, and their families, but there will be some events aimed solely at adults, in the form of writing and illustration masterclasses.
The festival aims to attract a combined audience of upwards of 10,000 people from Bath, Bristol and the South West region and will take place in a number of venues across Bath, both historic and modern. Venues hosting events will include The Guildhall, The Assembly Rooms, The Mission Theatre, Bath Forum, Bath Pavilion and Bath Central Library.
