The European Poetry Festival 2023
15 free events and over 120 new performances to over 1000 people. A fabulous sixth year for the festival with poets from two dozens nations across our continent, and across the UK, coming together for one of the grandest celebrations of European poetry ever to take place in Britain. With events across the UK and on the continent, the festival championed literary liveness, collaboration and cross-linguistic inventiveness.
Below, links to our primary festival events - click event links below for photographs and videos of the performances - as well as some of our generous partners, photographs of some of our poet-collaborator pairs and our award winning poster for 2023, designed by Babak Safari.
Thanks to everyone who made the 2023 festival so special!
