Welcome to R:Fest

A very warm welcome to the fourth Runnymede International Literary Festival. After the success of previous years’ festivals, we are looking forward to an even bigger and better festival this year.

As in previous years, Royal Holloway, University of London, the Runnymede International Literary Association and Runnymede Borough Council, the principal festival partners, are working together to bring a programme of literary activities to Runnymede, including a range of community events and a three-day festival of national and international writers at Royal Holloway. In addition, through the Royal Holloway outreach programme, events at Royal Holloway will begin on Wednesday, 18 March, with a special Schools’ Day focussing on Shakespeare.
