Local Authors

The unique Queen’s Park Community Tent is a home on the Festival site for a diverse range of local writers providing a platform for them to share their work to hundreds of people in a free, public space. The Community Tent was created specifically to champion local voices and empower under-represented groups in the community. It is an extremely popular festival venue and has previously been a platform for local refugees, elderly residents, young poets and emerging authors.
