The Little Felton Book Festival is a celebration of literature, creativity, and the power of storytelling. Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Felton, this annual festival brings together authors, poets, readers, and aspiring writers for a weekend of inspiration, learning, and connection.

Our mission is simple: to celebrate the art of storytelling, to promote literacy, and to provide a space for both established and emerging writers to share their work. We aim to curate a diverse and exciting program of events that includes author talks, panel discussions, book signings, writing workshops, and much more.

This year, The Little Felton Book Festival has grown into a community event that continues to bring people together over a shared love of literature. Whether you’re a lifelong book lover, a curious newcomer, or an aspiring author, our festival offers something for everyone.

The Little Felton Book Festival is organized by a passionate team of book lovers, creatives, and community members who are dedicated to bringing people together through the magic of literature. From our volunteers to our festival directors, everyone involved shares a common love for books and a desire to make the festival an unforgettable experience for all attendees.
