Thank you for joining us for our 10th birthday!
Newark Book Festival 2026!
We'd like to say a HUGE thank you to every single person who made Newark Book Festival 2026 a success and came to celebrate our 10th birthday.
Over the four days, we welcomed internationally renowned, best-selling, award-winning, local, self-published, and debut authors, writers and storytellers to Newark.
It's always a joy to see our town light up with the magic of literature in all its forms - celebrating the world of words, and we hope to continue for many years to come!
