A month to go – star authors in Lichfield for our Literature Festival!

Author Sarah Gristwood signs a book for an audience member

There will be books and writers galore in Lichfield at the end of this month, as we welcome major authors from the worlds of history, politics, science, nature and the environment, memoir and thrilling fiction to the 2025 Literature Festival!

Come and spend a day in the wonderful city of Lichfield, meeting our authors in person and hearing them talk about how they work, their current books and future projects. There’s always time for questions (and answers!) after all of our events… plus, it’s a great opportunity to chat to our authors whilst you get a signed copy for your summer reading list.

Our stellar list for this March includes legendary broadcaster Simon Mayo, star comedian/actor Helen Lederer, BBC Gardeners’ World stalwart Mark Lane, art historian and BBC’s Fake or Fortune? expert Bendor Grosvenor, together with journalist/editor Sir Charles Moore, and crime best-sellers Tess Gerritsen and Lindsey Davis.  Our full events list has all the details – and there are 4 full days to enjoy, with the Festival running from Thursday March 27th to Sunday March 30th.

Do come and join us – and keep your eyes peeled for further book events as part of our annual summer Festival this July (details will appear on our website from April onwards…).
