This is the eleventh year of Book Now!, a literary festival firmly established in Richmond Borough’s arts calendar and with a growing reputation nationally as a literature festival of note.

Media figures and broadcasters Libby Purves, Mark Lawson and Simon Hoggart are all part of the line-up, as is Claire Tomalin, Ann Widdecombe and Bernard MacLaverty. Actor, Richard E Grant appears live at The Orange Tree Theatre to raise funds for The Shooting Stars Children’s Hospice appeal, and there’s much more.

So whatever your interests, we hope you will find something in the festival to enjoy! Moreover, we are again delighted to welcome our sponsors, safe in the knowledge that we are the only major literature festival in the country to boast a major rugby club as its principal supporter à thoroughly appropriate for Twickenham, the home of English Rugby Union!
