Fourth Leeds Lit Fest to kick off in February celebrating city's vibrant and thriving literature scene

Running from Saturday, February 26 to Sunday, March 6 the event will showcase the talents of local writers, performers and artists alongside those from across the UK and internationally.

The award winning festival which is organised by a number of cultural organisations in the city, will look to engage audiences in over 50 events aimed to appeal not just to lovers of books and the written word but to also appeal to audiences that would never normally consider going to a literature festival.
