info@alderneyliterarytrust.com View Map Visit WebsiteThe Alderney Literary Festival is the Channel Island’s boutique history festival, where people who enjoy reading and writing about the past come together to talk books and have a great weekend.
The Festival takes place over a weekend every March in the historic Island Hall, Alderney’s seat of government, built in 1763. The audiences are kept small to create an intimate and friendly feel to this ‘salon’ style gathering of historians, biographers, novelists, and fans of historical literature.
In the Festival, history is explored through factual and fiction writing: biographies, thrillers and crime stories, the fantastical and the supernatural, romance, adventure, warfare and political analysis, and even poetry. Guest authors are asked to throw new light on old events and reinterpret them anew to make history relevant in the present time.
