WELCOME TO NEWARK BOOK FESTIVAL 2024
BOOK SEVEN
A review of 2023
In 2023, Newark Book Festival returned with a theme celebrating "Our World".
The programme was filled with curiosity, creativity and community, with author talks, panel events, writing workshops, theatre performances, music, poetry, and dance!Â
We welcomed over 9,000 book-loving attendees to Newark, as well as 150 writers, artists and creatives and 46 Young Ambassadors, who worked with the festival for the first time.Â
The diverse events programme also included the wonderful Bookshop Band, talks from nationally-renowned writers including Jarvis and Mike Gayle, plus a partnership with Made in the Midlands, who recorded a live episode of their podcast series with Nottingham-based poet Henry Normal.Â
