It has recently been announced that this year’s Hay Festival will now take place online. Hay Festival is a literary festival that takes place in the border town of Hay on Wye every year. Typically, they hold a two day programme for schools with talks by published authors, and then a week long general programme with events to suit any genre. Hay Festival proves to be popular due to the diverse range of events that take place across the week. This year, during half term, both the general programme and the programme for schools are available online. Using the links below, you are able to go to the website and take part in any of the events for free. Below you will find examples of events taking place in the school’s programme, and further in the document, events taking place in the general programme – so that both children and parents can enjoy Hay Festival!
