Ilkley Literature Festival works with a wide range of schools across Yorkshire and beyond, and it’s a fantastic opportunity for pupils to hear from nationally known authors.
Schools are warmly encouraged to bring groups of pupils to events in the main programme.
We offer group discounts and free staff tickets for anyone bringing a school group.
The 2012 Primary Schools event and our event for teachers and librarians were both with the fantastic Michael Rosen. Make you sure you check the website for details of who will be at our 2013 events when released!
