Sold out Alderney Literary Festival to get under way
- Published
Alderney Literary Festival is set to get under way on Friday.
Ten writers will take part in different talks and panel discussions at the sold out festival.
The event, which is in its seventh year, will take place at the Island Hall from Friday until Sunday.
One of the organisers said it had become "like a family", with people attending from Guernsey, Jersey and the UK.
The theme for this year's event is journeys, such as discovery and exploration as well as journeys for survival.
Organiser Isabel Picornell said: "This is our seventh Alderney Literary Festival and I am delighted how Alderney has made a name for itself in the genre of historical writing.
"The festival has become like a family, with our regular festival-goers from Guernsey, Jersey and the UK attending year after year, and our wonderful sponsors who continue to support us."
