Queen’s Park Book Festival is a vibrant and exciting celebration of literary arts in the heart of London. An area with deep literary history, Queen's Park has been a home to authors, artists, poets and actors for generations. Every year authors are welcomed by thousands of audience members for a weekend of events in the beautiful park.

Among the novelists who have featured at past festivals are Zadie Smith, Robert Harris, Bernardine Evaristo, Sebastian Faulks, Elif Shafak, Jonathan Coe, Eleanor Catton, Andrew O'Hagan, Ayobami Adebeyo, John Lanchester and Monique Roffey.  And among the nonfiction authors are Alan Bennett, Caroline Lucas, Ben MacIntyre, Polly Toynbee, Michael Palin, Catherine Ashton, Michel Roux, Mishal Hussein, Nicholas Hytner, Posy Simmonds and Colin Thubron.

The festival’s unique Queen’s Park Community Tent is the festival's stage dedicated entirely to nurturing local talent, supporting local artists and partnering with local chartities. It was created specifically to champion local voices and empower under-represented groups in the community. Every year it is proud to host a huge variety of artists including local refugees, young poets and emerging authors.
